hi; the correct shortcut for moving a file to the Trash is Ctrl + Delete, not Shift + Delete (which deletes the file immediately, bypassing the Trash).
Ctrl + Delete has been chosen because Delete was too easily triggered, and Nautilus didn't have an undo/redo system. if you disable the Trash, deleting a file is a destructive operation, thus putting it behind a two-keys combination is safer. you can easily find the bug and the discussion on Bugzilla and this mailing list archives. ciao, Emmanuele.
