Bug Description

To reproduce the bug:
Put some files in your USB stick
Delete some files (So this files were moved to .Trash1000)
And if I put some more files, there not show the dialog to empty the trash. Also there is not a dialog to empty trahs in the options of the USB stick.
The only way to delete the files is to delete .Trash1000 folder, which is hidden as deffault.
Obviusly new/normal users doesn't know that there is a folder with his own files already deleted.
So, I propose two implementations:
When the USB stick is full and you are n ot allowed to copy some files, in the sowhed dialog show the option to empty trash.
Also, show the option to empty trash in the rigth click options of the USB stick.

Are you sure? I simply tell that there's no option to empty trash when you presh rigth click in the usb stick icon or when the usb stick are full. I see the bug that you propose as duplicate, but it not seems to be the same thing I say...
Probably I haven't got enough knowledge to know this.
Please, read again and verify if it is a duplicate bug again.
Thank you =)
