Public bug reported:
This used to be called the Trash or Wastebasket.
Now it's "Deleted items folder".
This causes inconsistencies with the trash metaphor.
For example, the context menu for an item in Trash says "Delete from Deleted items folder". Huh? It's already deleted, as it's a 'deleted item'!
The whole purpose of the trash metaphor is to create a distinction
between putting something in the trash, where you can get it back, and
deleting, which is killing something for good.
** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
