Now that Calibre supports lrf, epub and has plugin support for others like lit, there needs to be a way to easily delete various converted versions from the Calibre library.

One can use the os file manager to delete from the Calibre directory, but what does this do to the database? But at least on the Mac version, I can't find a way to do this from within the software.

When you send to the device, which format is used? For example, I have both epub and lrf versions - which would be sent to a Sony 505? Seem like the lif, but would like control over that.

Seems like this is something that needs to be addressed if more output formats are supported.

I am a software developer with tons of UI experience, and may get more involved in coding, but for now just have the resources to make UI comments (and donate!).
