[Shotwell] Re-Import RAW+JPEG, 0.11

[Maximilian B]

It is not only this re-importing issue.
Imagine someone that moves photos temporarily from camera card to a
folder friend's PC because of low storage capacity, and burn them to
cd or receive them via network. how could he import paired photos
without moving them to camera?
