aljos, I see a proposal to add an option, which would not affect the default experience of Ubuntu unless that option were activated. I see no user data showing that a confirmation dialog before moving to trash would improve user experience. I don't doubt that it would, but we can't make large (it terms of exposure to users) changes like this ad hoc. The Trash feature itself is a form of confirmation. Please don't be dumfounded -- if you think this is a paper cut, prove me wrong. Do some user testing, report your findings, and summarize the change. If the change is to show a confirmation dialog, specify what it should say, what buttons should it have?

The conversation is already going on upstream, so I don't see the advantage of having the same discussion in parallel here.
