Hello!

Ok, after long long abstinence from the list, I am finally back, and 
back working and supporting an, at least partial, KDE environment.

My personal "feel" and believe is that even if there is not a complete 
standard in KDE and core products, there is at least in my user base the 
understanding that it is "move to trash", with the safety net of 
emptying the "can" afterwards.


Marcus.
