Please don't mark this as Invalid. I'm not saying the folder is unnecessary whilst the drive is mounted. However, the user does not expect it to be there and so I am requesting that it be removed automatically in this specific situation: Where the user has requested an unmount AND requested emptying the trash.

In this situation I see no problem with the system also removing the ".Trash" folder that it had created unbeknownst to the user.

Surely this falls under 'Correctness' ? Surely all the previous reports and bugs complaining about this leftover folder demonstrate that the system is doing something that users don't expect or want?
