[Bug 95853] Re: Add an option to get a confirmation dialog before deleting files in Nautilus

A warning for every single move-to-trash operation to "fix" this
problematic usecase is implementing a cruel workaround instead of fixing
the issues (in this case trash view usability). In fact, current
Nautilus git master has "trashed-on" column in list view, and
(irrespective of the view) sorts the trashcan by reversed deletion date
by default. So, the question "Which file did I just delete" is pretty
simple to answer, no matter how many million files you have in your
trashcan: It's the topmost.
