--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
Hmm, this seems to have regressed since it was originally reported. As of KDE
Frameworks 5.45, [Create New > Basic link to file or directory > enter
"trash:/" as the path] will now blindly create an invalid symlink instead of
even warning you. :/

Perhaps what we should really do is have one "Create link" item that's
intelligent enough to figure out how to create the link irrespective of whether
you specify a local path, a remote path, a web URL, a URL to a KIOSlave, or
anything else that's linkable.
