Bug description:
It would be good to have an expire kind of option for the Trash
folders in [K]ubuntu.
In the current mode, the Trash folder is useless. Users will either do a
Shift + Delete or Delete + Empty Trash.
If an expiry option is provided, it'll help a lot.
An example:
I use the laptop running Kubuntu. I take backups almost daily onto an
external HDD. If I go with the current mode, when I delete, I do:
* Shift + Delete or
* Delete + Empty Trash.
In both cases a backup of the data is no more available.
If you implement the feature I'm requesting for, I'd do it in the following
way.
* Set Trash Item Expire to 15 days.
* Throw unneeded items to Trash and forget.
* In 1-2 days, they'd get backed-up to my external HDD
* On the 15th day, they'd be _deleted_
Whoops......... I need that data back.
No problem. I still must be having it in my backup HDD.
Please, add this feature.
