  Yay real trashcans!!!! The appearance is definitely more appropriate compared to before. I really like it.
  
  However I'm afraid the visual recognizability of the full state compared to the empty state is worsened compared to the status quo:

  Full: F7310757: Screenshot_20190902_184510.png <https://phabricator.kde.org/F7310757>
  
  Before, the red folder background made it instantly recognizable that the trash was full--even if this wasn't really an appropriate visual metaphor. I wonder if we could play with other effects to make the full state look more obvious at a glance. Ideas:
  
  - Tint the can red
  - Add more stuff overflowing from the top
  - Color the overflowing stuff red
  - Move the lid that's on the ground so that we're looking at it head-on rather than from the side
  - Make the trashcan itself get fat like the classic mac OS 6 trashcan: F7310775: Screenshot_20190902_185108.png <https://phabricator.kde.org/F7310775>
