Description Jonas De Vuyst 2006-02-07 12:03:47 UTC
Currently when working on a removable disk a folder is created
/root/of/disk/.Trash-$USER. This can be annoying when you use different
usernames on different computers because you end up with two or more trash dirs.

As removable disks typically use VFAT it might be better to just use the folder
/root/of/disk/.Trash for certain file systems. Alternatively nautilus could
perhaps still create .Trash-$USER and move deleted files to that folder, but
when finding the mount point it could merge all .Trash* folders that it can
write to into trash:.
