I thought so too... Until i lost my -entire- MP3 collection by selecting 
delete (without confirmation) instead of properties. Argh!

I have a problem with the trash, i have a /, a /storage and a /mnt/storage 
directory on different partitions When i then put something from /storage in 
the trash, kubuntu copies the  file to my homedir where the trash is. Can't i 
have a trash on each partition?

Best regards
Cedric.
