        Nevertheless, if you assume that Emacs is running in an
 environment where there is a trashcan, you will be incorrect.

        Sure, I can graft on a trash can, not just to my fvwm based UI,
 but also to the console (smallish hack to the unlink system call), but
 assuming that such addenda exist would be ... dangerous.
