Description
This is hrev45105.
Matt recently pointed out that the Tracker option "Don't move files to Trash" is the only negatively phrased option, and thus may stand out needlessly. Any argument to rename it "Move deleted files to Trash" and activate per default?
I attach a patch that renames every function name etc. and also the Tracker settings file. This kinda breaks BeOS compatibility in this regard, but I wouldn't see that as a big problem.
Opinions?

Personally, I have no problem with negations, and I actually find the current version more clear. I'm not a native speaker, anyway, though. If you want to rephrase it positively, how about "Move files to Trash" or even "Move files to Trash instead of deleting them", maybe just "Use the Trash". The point is, the files aren't deleted yet.

With hrev45265 all Trash options were removed from the Tracker prefs.
