Bug Description
Binary package hint: nautilus
Nautilus deletes files without warning even when they have been marked read-only (444) or don't read (000). You have to be the owner of the file to do this. The behavior when using 'rm' on the console is a warning that the file is write protected. This should be implemented in Nautilus since at the moment no effective protection against accidental removal of files is possible.

I can reproduce this on Feisty: Nautilus trashes and deletes a read-only file without any warning.
