Comment 5 at Bug 756377 (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=756637#c5) seems not true, see Comment 18 RH Bug 1227946 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1227946#c18) I can't re-open Bug 756377 so I'm creating an new one - sorry if this is a pita, but you know - not having a 'Include a Delete command that bypasses Trash' is a pita...
Definitely. Message to Gnome Developers. Are there ways to reduce the use of the left mouse button? For a few weeks, I have been suffering with the pain from left mouse button click? Carpal Tunnel pain occurs because Gnome is left mouse button centric. Please restore the direct delete bypassing the trash. It was most convenient for the following reasons. A direct delete of a file located on a mounted drive did not go to that drive's hidden trash folder to remain on that drive when the drive was unmounted. Restore Direct Unmounting of a drive (a la 3.14) Unmounting a mounted drive, when it's icon is showing on the desktop was another shortcut that was removed. We just clicked on the icon with the right mouse button and voila- we could unmount it. Now I have to open nautilus, make visible the left drive column, and then click the unmount icon. (one click for the dash, one to start files, one to click on other, one to click on the unmount icon. Nautilus 3.14 version. Slide mouse pointer over icon representing drive to be unmounted. Right click on mouse button, click on the unmount drive. Total clicks with 3.14 version - two Total clicks with 3.18 version - four Do these activities a hundred times during an eight hour period. After a week, you too may be experiencing carpal tunnel pain for the right hand forefinger.
