Shouldn't CVS ignore all .* files? What about e.g. .xvpics or other thumbnail
directories?
A trash implementation like this would benefit from support that's wider that
just KDE. What's the GNOME way of handling the trash? A linux/unix wide trash
consensus would be nice, but I don't think it's attainable.
Especially for removable media, this type of trash is very easy. I've
experience with it on old macs. If you'd insert a floppy with a deleted file,
you're trash would suddenly be filled and you'd know that a deleted file was
on the floppy.
It would be very nice if this feature would work on GNOME too. When emptying
the trash, one might add a dialog to empty the trash per partition. It might
however, confuse the user.
