That would be uncalled for, however. A user might knowingly delete (unlink) their files as a sort of temporary hiding measure against a dumb adversary without forensic knowledge (say, family members), before restoring them.
Having two distinct options is a more preferable method. Certain files can have different deletion flags in the trash.

That seems like a crazily tiny use case. For the average user, though, I'd rather make them more secure by default.
