>I'm actually of the other camp. I get frustrated having to lose time confirming every action I wish to perform. It makes me scream "Yes I wish to delete this file, why do you think I pressed delete in the first place?" at my screen. It makes me think back in horror to the days I used that fisherprice green-blue operating system.

Yes, true. I hate the Trash. I do not approve with this concept. If I want to delete, I press shift + del to delete the freakin file or i use rm WITHOUT the interactive option. I hate being asked for confirmation of things I know I want to do.
I do not put things in Trash, I delete.

Now if I happen to accidentially press delete, nautilus moves my files away without asking. I do not like that. My torrent folders just moved to the trash and my torrent app whined it could not access the anymore. I lose files because of this behaviour. Please appeal to the people in charge to put an OPTION there where you can disable the trash OR just put a bloody confirmation dialog there.

The del key is just tooo much in reach to be accidentially pressed. Ubuntu gets more and more "user friendly" with every release, why not put that there, too.
