As someone who uses trash, I can tell you that this would be a very exceptional
case. Usually I dont empty trash for months.
If I would empty it often, the whole concept would not make sense over
permanent delete.

So usually you will have tons of old files in trash. And the last thing you
want is to restore them all  .... possibly by accident, by clicking "restore
all" from the context menu.
So yea, when I think again about it, I guess such an option would be a pretty
bad idea ;)

Please, best only report usibility bugs for things you actually use !
