Can I rename a filmroll? (dt 3.4.1 under Linux)

That seems elegantly simple, but, being in-elegantly stupid, I don’t see how to do it:
I have created a film-roll with an unacceptable name (user error); if I could create a new film roll without having to import images again then I could move images from the erroneous film-roll into a correctly named, newly created one and then ‘trash’ all the images in the incorrectly named one, resulting in the incorrect film-roll name also being trashed and leaving me with the correct images in the correctly named film-roll. Fine - except for 2 problems:

  1. Even though I can create a new, empty film-roll (by typing a name into the box directly to the right of the word ‘film roll’ in the collect images module), I cannot ‘see’ that newly named film-roll when I select the ‘copy from’ film-roll to select the images to be moved.
  2. I cannot find a way of moving images between film-rolls; using the ‘move’ option in the selection module moves between folders but cannot access film-rolls by name.

Even then, there are less steps if I just re-import the images into another, correctly named film-roll - except that dt tells me that no images are imported (presumably because dt prevents me from importing the same image again).

So what I have I majorly mis-understood here?
