            Bug ID: 15937
           Summary: Enhancement: Ask before deleting files as default
                    behaviour
    Classification: Xfce Core
           Product: Thunar
           Version: 1.8.4
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Medium
         Component: Core
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: notebook22312 at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: 1.8.10

Suggestion:
 Make Thunar ask before really moving a file to trash (as default behaviour,
but toggleable).

Reasons:
 1) If this is not implemented:
     - Holding the [del] key "too long" will remove several files (this might
be unexpected)
     - unintentionally wrongly selected files might get deleted

 2) Restoring files from trash is a rather tedious task (compared to eg. how it
works under windows).
