The "remove" option is greyed out on files and folders from an imported project.

K3b is unable to remove any files from the file list of an imported session, so please allow removing files from an imported project.

While this doesn't physically erase the file, it would still be helpful for file management purposes such as eliminating unwanted duplicates and corrupted files so they can be replaced. It would also allow removing empty folders after the files inside have been moved into a different folder.

Windows tools such as Nero, ImgBurn, CDBurnerXP all have this ability for decades.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Import an existing session
2. Right click on an existing file, or press the delete key ("del").

OBSERVED RESULT
The "remove" option is greyed out. When pressing the "del" key, no files are removed. 

EXPECTED RESULT
The "remove" option would be clickable and files from an existing session would be removed.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux Mint 21 (based on Ubuntu)
