Idea #11338: Restore from trash can be worked out

bug This idea is a duplicate of Idea #60: Restore deleted items trash bin.
Written by dragoninsane the 20 Jul 08 at 19:00. Category: Others. Related project: Nothing/Others. Status: New
Rationale
::::::RESTORE FROM TRASH:::::::::::
Sorry this idea got trashed,i mean triaged sounds technical but please explain whats the fate of "restoring from trash in gnome".
Although i dont know how hard it is fix this bug,why it got low priority in gnome(while 70%+ users like to be in every default install,i call it "quintessential feature".
I have an idea first try to implement below ideas
Merged:
[Best idea got 1200+ votes great]Idea #60: Restore deleted items trash bin
Idea #11030: Improve Recycle bin & Delete files
or There can be two options additional provided to user when a user accidentally deletes a file to trash[please warn before moving to trash?].
1)Restore to original location,one or more
Right click on item(s) in trash>>restore to original location
2)Restore it to Home directory if above options doesnt work/not feasible(due to permissions etc).
more related and got less importance issues
3)Can we integrate Trash Folder in nautilus?
4)Idea #58: Trash folder on diskette, USB,hard disk
5)Clean root trash,delete files from flash(forcibly 6)sometimes doesnt get easy to trash due to errors/permission)
7)Idea #6537: Empty root trash
8)Idea #10751: Get rid of second trash can under ~/local/share
9)More configuration/references for setting size of trash,arranging by date/size.
i partially agree with
Idea #5468: "Restore last item" for trash icon,wonder what if have many deleted items
Sorry being too elaborate just wanted to get attention of developers on "TRASH/Recycle bin" related problem
also those above ideas got mixed share of votes.

Yup, sometimes I delete the wrong file and leave the folder it was it and i don't remember which, and I can actually "destroy" programs installed because of this...
