I believe that in that case, Thunar should ask the user what to do -
Trash it in the user main Trash folder, or delete it completely. I
don't believe there's a case he'd like to save it in Trash on the USB
disc. Something like "if the the file is larger then 10MB, ask the
user what to do". If it's less than 10MB, I think we can safely move
it into the main Trash.

I know it's not the best solution, but I can't think of anything
better right now.
