That doesn't negate the need for good defaults, thought. Put it this
way -- why shouldn't you have to customise your Emacs to work the way
you want, rather than Lennart having to customise his?

So far, the only valid argument I've heard in favour of bypassing the
Recycle Bin is to conserve disk space. The argument for not bypassing
the Recycle Bin is that occasionally users may be surprised that their
files have been fully deleted, and may lose important information. It
seems to me that the second argument outweighs the first.
