I have equal experience of Daniel Silverstone in the Ubuntu 8.04 distribution:

an directory with read-only permission can moved in the trash but can't removed from the trash.

Then i have execute "sudo chmod -R +w .local/share/trash/files/*" from my home

At this point the trash can be emptied.

i think that nautilus must change the permission to write mode of all objects trashed and annotate the original permission in the object's info files in ~home/.local/share/Trash/info/ directory and reassign original permission when a trashed object are "un-trushed" with an appropriate button that do not exist for now.

excuse me my english.
