After losing my entire movie collection due to an accidental deletion (how was I supposed to know half my hard drive was in the trash can when I emptied it?), the lack of a confirmation option may well be enough to get me to move back to Windows. It is absolutely absurd to me that an operating system as powerful and flexible as Ubuntu won't even give me the *option* to request a dialogue box before deleting items with one keystroke.

I'm a huge fan of Linux, but this is probably a deal-breaker for me -- especially since this is a feature that's been requested for years from many users and still has not been implemented. If I can't find a workaround for this, I'll be forced back to Windows, because I simply do not have the time to continually restore all of my files from backup due to one accidental keystroke.
