I'm not sure whether that's a malfeature or not -- if you've told Emacs
that everything you delete should go to the trash can, then even
deleting things in the trash can should perhaps go there?

Perhaps a new value to delete-by-moving-to-trash that would mean "delete
if we're trying to delete in the trash can"?

And... there doesn't seem to be any commands in Emacs for emptying the
trash can?  Shouldn't there be?
