Desktop could be stuck b'cause of Trash Dialog.



Hi All,

This is regarding bug, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101690.

Problem
--------
Invoke the trash dialog through the keyboard, this causes the whole
desktop to be stuck unless the dialog is dismissed. This is due to
"Empty Trash" button and "Edit" menu having the same mnemonics.

Solution
-----
The fix should be ideally in gtk+, i.e. resolving the conflict. But
based on comments from Owen w.r.t code and Calum w.r.t to usability,  I
would like to request the change in the mnemonic for "Empty Trash"
button.

Would like to see this bug fixed for the 2.2 release. :)  Attaching the
patch as well.

Please let me know your views.

Thanks,
-Arvind
