@kikl: Completely unrelated to whether it's a good idea to get undo
dialogs/bars on moving to trash or not, Nautilus's trash display does
indeed have poor usability. No deletion date grouping, sorting or even
displaying. Also, one can't really know where the files are going to be
restored to. That makes it hard to navigate or even use the trash,
especially when it hasn't been emptied in a while. Also, even with
"clean" trashes, there's no way to distinguish several files with
identical names etc.

I put together a small Python application to have a better view of the
trash (Screenshot:

base libraries make that pretty easy. Maybe it'd be good to have such a
display in Nautilus, or maybe even standalone started from the trash
applet. Anyways, although trash usability is clearly related, this seems
to be orthogonal to this very bug report.
