Description

It’s a known issue that files moved from the “/Persistence” directory into the recycle bin are not accessible through the “non-persistence” recycle bin. This can be confusing, especially for those new to Linux, and / or who don’t know where to look for the recycle bin folder.

So my proposal is that we simply add a Link to the hidden “/.Trash-1000/files” give it an appropriate name “Trash (Persistence)”, and place it in the “Bookmarks” in Nautilus.

Should not take too long, this should just be considered a “fix” for the moment. It’s just really bad to leave it like it is now.
