This would obviously require some kernel support. Which means that it
won't be implemented in gnome (portability).

Files wouldn't be moved anywhere, just simply flagged as deleted, and
have a deletion date attribute. Maybe extended attributes can be used?
The interesting part is how to index them for quick access...

This kind of system redesign might be overkill for Ubuntu. But then
again, why not?
