Hello Debian OS developers,

I have a suggestion for the Debian Project:


The system/administration section of the OS is password protected. This is a 
good protection against viruses etc that would attack the OS but maybe the 
Debian developers could include password protecting Emptying the Trash. So when 
you delete files, they would be sent to the Trash as always but if you want to 
empty it, a user password would be necessary. This would prevent harm from 
viruses even though I understand that Linux has very few of them.

The same idea could be applied to the Terminal. The Terminal would ask for a 
password every time you would want to delete a file.


To my knowledge, today the only way of protecting files in a similar way is to 
create different user profiles with different permissions.


Hope you will take my suggestion into account.


Regards,
David
