Initially I liked this idea, but now I don't. The reason I don't like it is because a count badge either means there are a number of things that need attention, or a number of temporary things in progress. In both of those cases, knowing the count is important and it should distract the user, getting their attention.
Having items in the trash however is not important and should not usually get the user's attention... Unless there are too many items in the trash. So maybe what we want is a threshold. Something like 10% of your disk, or 100 files, or something. Only when there are too many items in the trash, should the user be asked to care about it.
