Indeed this also affects me.

i mount a directory on the server on my client with sshfs.

sshfs u...@server.com:/home/user /mnt -o reconnect -o big_writes -o
compression=yes

In the directory /home/user on the server I can delete non-empty directories in 
Nautilus EXCEPT when
they are on a seperate (usb)disk (/dev/sdb1) that is mounted on 
/home/user/external_disk

"rm -r /mnt/external_disk/non_empty_directory"  works fine.

In nautilus i first get "Cannot move to trash", "Operation not permitted"
when i choose "Delete immidiately" i get an "Error while deleting", "Operation 
not permitted"


The problem boils down to this:

Removing non-empty dirs in Nautilus works fine through sshfs when the dirs are 
on the same disk
as the mounted volume, but fail when removing non-empty dirs on a different 
disc than the mounted directory.

/mnt  --->  ss...@server:/home/user/externaldisc/   ,   then Nautilus remove 
'subdir' works fine...
/mnt  ---> ss...@server:/home/user/         , then Nautilus remove 
'externaldisc/subdir' fails...

kind regards,
