I agree with the concerns raised in this bug report , also another valid 
comment from a duplicate: that the present icon resembles the 'NO' sign.

Franck , makes a very good point that the delete icon and using trash
can for delete , should signify a action which can be restored/reverted.

This new icon brings to light the wrong use of the icons in the apps , 
The apps should use the list-remove/gtk-remove/remove icon for such 
irreversible actions. Rather than the delete icon.

Delete icon should be used for actions similar to the "move to trash".

The present delete icon warns of an irreversible action "No" / "beware"
as is commonly used in icon themes >

But , we will not be making any more changes to the humanity-icon-
theme(Ubuntu) unless the suggestions are from the design team.

IMO , it would be better to leave it as-is for Karmic and weed out the
wrong icon usage by the apps. And consider any further icon change for
Lucid.
