Perhaps the few functions that create temporary files should record
the file in some list, and delete-file could then consult that list to
decide whether to delete or move to trash bin.

Alternatively, perhaps only a few interactive commands should actually
move to trash, while all the other uses of delete-file should actually
delete.
