A lot of responses in the thread say that deleted files should be counted in the quota. (And then stored until the user purges.)
I'm general, I think this is a good approach.
The consequence is that there is a certain class of user that won't understand this and will get confused when their account hits quota, but they don't see those files on their computer.
Another consequence is that we don't sync recycle bins, so it wouldn't be straightforward for users to purge it.
I personally think that moving deleted files to something like Glacier, (slow and cheap, think tape in the cloud,) and then having a separate recycle bin quota, is the best approach.
