IMPORTANT UPDATE:
Now that we know the root cause of this problem thanks to CzBix (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1449112/comments/7)
I have reported this issue as a bug in the glib2.0 package (instead of
nautilus)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/1638245
It seems we need to wait for a patch to be made to a patch made to the
original package, as that patch --I'm told-- also serves an important
purpose which should not be omitted (as the workaround above, although
it seems quite harmless, I don't know)
Therefore I think it is better to follow the developments there, and
close this one.

Title:
can't move files to trash without any owner/permission issues
Status in Nautilus:
Unknown
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
This is something that wouldn't happen before upgrading from Ubuntu
14.10 / Nautilus 3.10 to Ubuntu 15.04 / Nautilus 3.14:
I have a proper HOME partition and most User folders there (Documents,
Downloads, Music, Pictures, Videos) are merely SYMLINKS to folders
with the same names in a DATA partition which is mounted automatically
at startup with proper options in fstab.
Now -- unlike before -- when I attempt to delete an item in one of
these folders after I open it via the SYMLINK I get the message "...
can't be put in the trash. Do you want to delete it immediately?"
although it is immediately moved to the Trash after I open the folder
via the Data partition in the sidebar. (Naturally there are no such
problems with items in other (real) items in my Home folder.
Nautilus now seems confused about / not knowing where to move the item
in question; to the Trash folder in the Home partition (symlink
location) or the Data partition (real item location).
