Description Lionel Dricot 2008-10-15 14:10:32 UTC 
There should be an option that allows you to :

"automatically delete files that are in the Trash for more than X days/weeks/months"


It would avoid trash cluttering and it would help to not fill the hard disk with old files, specially for end-user that don't want to learn that they should empty the trash regulary.
