I had a directory that I owned moved to Trash.
The directory contained files and directories owned by root but I was not challenged.

The rules for moving to Trash need to use inbuilt security.
The files that are actually in Trash need to be fully under control of the owner of the Trash directory.
i.e. move to trash is really 'chmod -R', to take ownership of the moving files and then 'mv'.

Although the status of this bug is 'confirmed' I can't see what is to happen next.
Is there a fix in the pipeline?
