Thanks to @JayShauer's clue about evolution-alarm-notify, I finally managed to stop the phantom reminder popups that have plagued me since upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04.

[Bug 1740809] [NEW] Folder says Empty when it is not empty
Public bug reported: The folder/directory list on the left side of gthumb says "(Empty)" below a folder when that folder has no subdirectories, even though the folder is NOT empty: it contains photos! This is misleading and apt to cause the user -- such as me! -- to accidentally delete photos by deleting a non-empty directory thinking that it is empty. If the user clicks on the folder/directory name, then normally thumbnails are displayed on the right, so that can help alert the user to the presence of photos in that folder in spite of the fact that it says "(Empty)". However, this is not a reliable enough way to prevent accidental photo deletion, because: 1. gthumb might currently be displaying the contents of a completely different folder. For example, on the attached screenshot on the right the thumbnails of folder 12-11-22 are displayed, but a DIFFERENT folder (2012-11-26) has been right-clicked to pop up its menu in order to delete it, because gthumb (misleadingly) says "(Empty)" under that folder. 2. When a folder contains a LOT of photos, gthumb sometimes takes a long time before displaying any thumbnails, which can give the appearance of the folder being empty! 3. As I previously mentioned, the folder list on the left explicitly says "(Empty)". Please do not display the word "(Empty)" below a folder name unless that folder really is EMPTY, i.e., it contains no folders or other files. It is dangerously misleading and is not needed.

[Bug 1740713] [NEW] gthumb asks for confirmation before deleting an empty directory
Public bug reported: When attempting to delete an empty directory, gthumb pointlessly pops up a confirmation dialog asking "Are you sure you want to permanently delete [the folder]? If you delete a file, it will be permanently lost." In addition to wasting the user's time, this is also dangerous, because it conditions the user to always confirm such dialogs: it causes users to fail to notice REAL warnings when they happen. It is similar to a false alarm. In healthcare, this phenomenon is known as "alarm fatigue", and is well documented as being dangerous: https://psnet.ahrq.gov/webmm/case/362/harm-from-alarm-fatigue If the directory is already empty when the user tries to delete it, then gthumb should not issue a confirmation dialog.

[Bug 492782] Re: Mouse cursor disappears after restarting screen (xrandr / resume)
This bug also affects me, on Dell Studio 15, Ubuntu 10.04. For a while, the
workaround at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/554438/comments/21
was effective, but recently ctrl-alt-f7 started completely freezing my display,
forcing me to power-off reboot. ( I have not yet found a workaround for that
problem, but for the moment I am assuming that that is a separate issue.)
The workaround of changing virtual desktops (via ctrl-alt-leftArrrow and
ctrl-alt-rightArrow) does NOT work for me.
The partial workaround of making the pointer visible when ctrl is pressed is
helpful, but not a full workaround:

*does* work for me, though it is inconvenient to be blindly trying to start up
an instance of gedit after every suspend/resume cycle. To make it slightly
more convenient, I modified the code at
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/554438/comments/21
to run gedit automatically upon resuming. I did this by placing the following
