A warning for every single move-to-trash operation to "fix" this problematic usecase is implementing a cruel workaround instead of fixing the issues (in this case trash view usability). In fact, current Nautilus git master has "trashed-on" column in list view, and (irrespective of the view) sorts the trashcan by reversed deletion date by default. So, the question "Which file did I just delete" is pretty simple to answer, no matter how many million files you have in your trashcan: It's the topmost.
