--- Comment #2 from alexxcons <alexxcons at xfce.org> ---
Xfconf runs as a daemon, so before editing thunar.xml,  I would suggest to kill
any running xfconf processes. ( Otherwise the running xfconf will overwrite
your thunar.xml )

Was the line "misc-show-delete-action" still in thunar.xml after reboot ?

A different way to permanently modify a xfconf setting is:
xfconf-query --channel thunar --property /misc-show-delete-action --create
--type bool --set true

I dont plan to change the default value to "true", since I think "false" is the
correct default.
- less bloated context menu
- "trash" is some kind of default nowadays, some unexperienced users dont know
the difference and may "delete" on accident
- It happened to me that I deleted files on accident, while I only wanted to
trash ...who actually reads the confirmation dialog ? (I quess this is pretty
much the reason why you colorized the icon red in your distro) :P
