I'd like to be able to delete files from my USB thumb drive from within the Roku Media Player. Like a DVR, after I've watched content, I don't need it any more and want to delete it to avoid having to remember what I have watched and haven't watched. (A secondary benefit is to clear space on the device, but the space isn't really needed until the thumb drive is plugged back into a device to add new content.)

The content that I'm concerned with is mostly video files with SRT subtitles. It would be enough to delete only the video file, but it would be great if the SRT was deleted at the same time.

I agree. A media player should have a delete function. Sheesh!

Unfortunately, this is an API limitation. Write access on usb is not allowed for now, and delete access could lead to malware abusing it, and then you can’t trust Roku to use your usb plugged in.
