[Bug 1434880] [NEW] If you go into a folder inside Trash it takes you to that folder in it's actual location

 

Public bug reported:

This seems to be a bug as it is not such a useful thing and may confuse
some people as it brings you to the path behind the fake path
"trash:///". The thing is that when I move a folder into Trash, and then
go into the folder while it is still in Trash, instead of the path at
the top being "trash:///Folder", it becomes the actual real path to that
folder's location in your actual file system and becomes ("<username>"
replaced by your actual username):
"/home/<username>/.local/share/Trash/files/Folder". This is not such a
problem, but for the sake of perfection I think that it should not take
you to the actual location in the file system, but stay with the fake
Trash path.

There is also no way of emptying the Trash in the location it takes you
to, and you would have to go back, but this could confuse some people.
