One extra call to get free space info? If I (as a user) can figure it out but simply calling kwikdisk KDE could do the analogous thing for users sake.

Hmm, quoting
"ReiserFS (...) Another benefit lies in the dynamic allocation of inodes."
http://www.novell.com/documentation/suse91/suselinux-adminguide/html/apas02.html

I had 300MB space on disk and I couldn't trash 0B files and KDE (or trash?) said that there is no room to create .trashcan info file.

You can say that maybe reiserfs is not modern enough, but there would always be a limit for some resource, so it is better to improve that information dialog.
