That's probably the best permissions to give to the .Trash directory,
but the minimum requirements are -------wt, right?

I mean the implementation should require that at least S_IWOTH | S_IXOTH | S_ISVTX are set,
and it's a directory, and it's not symlink, and owned by uid==0. Does that look right?
