This is rather disappointing. First of all, we don't need notification bars, or fancy things to tell us we "accidentally" deleted something. Second of all, why is upstream so determined to change the mindset of the users?

This is really simple, add a small option somewhere in the settings (it's not like there are an overwhelming amount of options already). "Prompt for confirmation when sending a file to trash". Put a little check box next to it. Heck, you don't even have to make it checked by default. How hard is this? I can think of no easier solution to something that a large group of people consider a problem.

Sadly, my words are wasted. I was growing fond of Gnome's simplicity, but this mindset has convinced me that the Gnome camp is not where i want to be... and even not where the majority of my customers want to be. This single item is actually large enough to switch them all over to KDE.

Yes, i know i can use Konqueror or Dolphin in Gnome... but they're just not seemless.

Good night, and have fun with your ultra user friendly GUIs that confound the masses.
