Description
For all other folders, cut and paste of images from the folder into another dataset work as expected. copy/paste makes a copy; cut and paste does a move. Drag/drop does a move.
Copy/paste of an images from Orphaned images does a move, *not* a copy as expected. Cut/paste is not available. Drag/drop does a move.
Suggestion: to preserve user expectations of how these behave and make things consistent, would it be possible to disable copy and enable cut for Orphaned images so that the operations behave as expected (even if internally this is not what's happening--the user should not have to understand the internal data model of the program).
Regards,
Roger

(In [b3ebe847762adcb16938a026bb2fe490875086d9/ome.git] on branch develop) Orphaned images can be 'Cut' not 'Copy'. Fixes #8777
Also, right clicking on the file in "Orphaned Images" and then choosing "Move to group" leads to the following error:
You are only in a single group.
You cannot move data to another group.
While drag/drop does in fact appear to work. It would be good if this also did the right/obvious thing here.
