OK, that makes sense. So with this new option, we can choose to either:
1. Let Calibre's send-to-iTunes copies remain where ever it is they are created (presumably we can choose that location) and it will essentially be a separate folder of books used in the iTunes library, or

2. We can delete the books in iTunes as soon as we are done putting them on our devices. This will clean up the extra copy, and we'll just have to send it from Calibre if we ever lose it from the device and need to re add it.

If I'm reading all that correctly, #2 sounds pretty painless for those of us who don't want iTunes to make copies of our files.
