No this is correct, if there is no waste bin pages are deleted
permanently. However in this case there should be a confirmation
dialog for deleting pages stating that deleting in permanent. If you
did not see that dialog there is a trash bin *somewhere* (check for a
.Trash in the home dir ?). But don't expect that trash is supported on
cygwin.
