A little bash script to do most of
that in Ubuntu wouldn't be hard to write at all.

rm -rf ~/path/to/browser/cache & rm -rf ~/other/deleteables & rm -rf
~/.Trash

Name the bash file something like 'cleanup', stick it in ~/bin, run it
manually or set up a cronjob to do it.

You could probably even set it up to run automatically on shutdown, I'm
guessing.

Bash scripts can be fun, and very, very useful.
