To my knowledge, this is by design (or at least was in 2.4x). Read the tooltip on the X button to the right of the image's name in the selector. I believe it says to hold Shift while Left-Clicking to delete the image on save.

Just save and reload an extra time, with indirect references this can happen. Not ideal but also not considered a bug at the moment.
