Sebastien, then please include a link to the bugzilla bug in your comment. That will help people to negotiate the issue in a more productive way.
re: "Security concerns dont really exist with trash folders on shared drives: If you delete a file that was public on an ntfs drive, you expect it to go to your trash, and will expect it to still be public, and if you really want to get rid of it you will know you have to empty your trash" I don't agree with this. As a user I don't want my files becoming public just because I delete them. Of course that may be what happens (and if so then I should be made aware of this due to the security implications) but still. I agree that this is not a straightforward problem from a security standpoint. But there is a straightforward *solution* from a security standpoint. Just create a trash folder for each user. To raise the old "how is it done in Windows?" hairshirt, think about that. Just what happens if a person with user priviledges deletes a file? It goes into a *common* trashcan. Does that change the privileges of the file? Probably not. If that's not an issue but the OS crowd doesn't want to follow that model, then just create separate trash cans for each user.
