Isn't the camera roll just a convenient way to look at all your pictures
regardless of what album it's in? Sort of like a listing of all the
photos on the device? I can understand why you can't delete the picture
from the camera roll but still keep it in one of the albums. It's not
like you've got two different copies of the same file -- the camera roll
is merely a different way of viewing the same files.
