filefield still references image after it was removed from content [#866186]

hi i am using the following modules:

- FileField
- ImageField
- IMCE
- FileField Sources

all in the current stable version on D6.

if i upload an image using imce and pick it afterwards user FileField Sources, the file is reference by FileField. But if i remove it again the reference is not deleted as i can see when i call

module_invoke_all('file_references', $file);

this causes the issue that i cannot delete these files through imce anymore. it gives me the notice that the file is used by another module.

ideas?

thanks

IMCE now implements hook_file_references() also, so the only way you can delete that image is to delete it through IMCE.

on line 405 in imce.page.inc you do the following:

$refs = array_filter(module_invoke_all('file_references', $file));
//file is in use
if (!empty($refs)) {
  drupal_set_message(t('%filename is in use by another application.', array('%filename' => $file->filename)), 'error');
  return FALSE;
}

$refs contains an array:
