            Bug ID: 318583
           Summary: Trash bin -- can't make a shortcut, plasmoid doesn't
                    work
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kde
           Version: 4.10.2
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

How can I get to the trash bin files and functionality (empty it, configure,
full icon and empty icon indicator)? Well, it is possible via Dolphin's sidebar
and within Konqueror. Let's now imagine I'd like to make a shortcut to the
trash bin on my desktop or plasma panel, whatever.

1. Drag and drop a trash bin icon from dolphin's sidebar causes all files from
the trash are moved to the destination place.

2. Creating a shortcut to file or directory (trash:/) with right mouse button
within a directory view says I have to create a shortcut to a URL.

3. Creating a link to a URL (trash:/) with right mouse button within a
directory seems to work (trash bin icon appears, there is a menu to empty trash
and configure it) but opening this link says that trash:/ is not a proper URL.

4. Trash bin plasmoid -- improper URL error appears when trying to open it.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Drag and drop a trash bin icon from dolphin's sidebar to some other
directory (for example /home/user/Desktop)
2. Click with right mouse button within a directory and select Create New ->
Basic shortcut to a file or directory (sorry, I'm using a translated version),
type trash:/ or select trash icon.
3. Click with right mouse button within a directory and select Create New ->
Shortcut to a URL address, type trash:/ or select trash icon.
4. Add a trash bin plasmoid to the pannel or desktop and try to open it.
Actual Results:  
1. Files from trash are moved to the destination
2. Dialog window appears with message that I should create an URL link
3. Says that trash:/ is a bad URL.
4.  Says that trash:/ is a bad URL.

Expected Results:  
1. Trash bit shortcut should be created effortless using any of these methods.
User doesn't care if trash:/ is a URL or basic shortcut or plasmoid applet,
whatever. It should JUST WORK.

I haven't figured out a way how to create a trash bin shortcut. It seems to
impossible but I remember it worked someday with URL link option and trash bin
plasmoid seems to be such a link which doesn't work now.
