[Bug 12893] Re: Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices
This bug is more than 10 years old, and all the other projects are
marked as Fix Released, so I just closed the last one (Baltix).
If you think it's still an issue and worth investigating, feel free to
reopen the bug. If this is the case, I suggest you reopen the bug in the
upstream bug tracker, where the development actually occurs. I'm sure if
you work on a patch, they'll be more than happy to review it and
consider merging. This way, many more projects will benefit from your
work, instead of just Baltix.

Shouldn't put .Trash-$USER on removable devices

Bug description:
I'm sick and tired of finding that my digital camera card is full after deleting
all the pictures, and my iAudio still plays deleted files.
This is because instead of deleting files from removal devices, Nautilus creates
a .Trash-$USER directory and moves the files into there.
Can we please make the default be to _not_ do this? It makes (some) sense for
the main drive, but removable ones tend to be "temporary" storage. A better
alternative would be to remove the files from the removable device and into the
user's home directory .Trash
