Comment 43 for bug 12893

A real-life case:
Prof Dr. Jane clicked the delete key and than (as most of us will do after our Windows experiences) confirmed a dialogue without thinking twice, and thus deleting a paper her student emailed to her a month ago. The paper was in her usb stick that she was browsing. The student's email is already deleted and purged. The student came by two days later, telling her that his hard drive was wiped and he lost that paper for good. He wants that paper back.

In Windows:
The paper is gone because Windows (afaik) deletes remote files.

In Dapper:
The paper is still in .Trash-Jane, hidden. Jane most probably doesn't know it exists.

In Edgy (my proposition):
The paper is in ~/.Trash thanks to a script that links /media/removable/.Trash-Jane to ~/.Trash once the media is inserted / mounted. This link is removed once the media is unmounted. Jane doesn't know or care how this works: the paper is recovered.

In Edgy (your proposition):
The paper is gone.
