Public bug reported:

1) Xubuntu 15.10 beta 1

2) Thunar 1.6.10

3) Dragging in Thunar an external folder (like "/media/user/mountxy" for 
example) to one's home folder creates a linked folder (or is it called: folder 
link?). 
Now inside this linked folder I try to use Thunar's right-click "delete file" 
menu. It's the "delete to trash" entry.
When the file is in some sub-folder of the linked folder, everything works.
When file is in the linked folder's root however, Thunar gives the following 
error:

4) Thunar complains (roughly translated to English from my localised
Thunar) :

»File couldn't be moved to trash.
Invalid link across device boundaries.«

(In localised language the message says so:
»Datei konnte nicht in den Papierkorb verschoben werden.
Ungültiger Link über Gerätegrenzen hinweg.« )

P.S. When in this linked folder's root I delete the file without the
trash-option, i.e. the "delete forever" menu entry, it works.
