Photos: Cannot view photos from deleted category

[GregLeonhardt]

After deleting an upload photo category all photos from that category remain on the server. Yet there is no method for a user to continue manage the photos. They are simply wasted storage on the server.
Please delete these photos when the category is deleted or assign them to a "default' category so they may be managed.

That is correct. I've just tested and verified this.

A) I think the easiest thing would be to delete the photos from the server.

B) But maybe the best solution would be to create a type of recycle bin like category, that you could still access them. Only the uploader could see them, then maybe manually delete them or move them to a new category.

C) It would also be nice to have an option when deleting a category, to choose what to do with the photos, delete them or move then to existing categories.

Option 'C' is obviously the most flexible but also more than likely the most complex to implement.
Any of the above would work for me.

After reading over this I think this is an enhancement and not a big.
