Hello,
The good news is I just fixed the selection problem in detailed list
view induced by new bug in gtk+ 2.18+ with simple workarounds so now
it works.
The bad one is some changes of strings is required to fix bug #2979567.

Sorry for the inconvenience for all of the translators, but this is
required since moving files to trash bin on remote filesystem is not
supported by gvfs. When a user does this, the files will be deleted
directly rather than being moved to trash bin. So a prompt telling the
user their files will be deleted directly is definitely needed.

Without this fix, files on remote filesystems cannot be deleted if
trash bin support is turned on and this is a severe usability bug. So
I'm requesting a string change here.

Another issue raised by brother is the terms "trash can" and "trash
bin". Those two terms are used interchangeably in libfm and pcmanfm.
However, only one of them should be used throughout the whole program
for better consistency. So I'm going to fix this, too. For native
English speakers, which term is more suitable?

Marty Jack, help from you is needed since you seem to be the only
native English speaker in our development team.

Thank you all and sorry for the inconvenience.
