Hello! 

Sometimes I have to search in the "Trash" folder with "Find" for some deleted file but when I find it there is no "Restore" option in the context menu (Right button click). I think that adding such an option will be useful.

Confirmed.

Trash right click menu

I can not confirm this bug (see attached file) since there is an option to restore ("Wiederherstellen") a file in the right click menu within the trash.
Since the bug was reported back in 2017 I guess it got added in the past at some point.

Restore button option

Even the option now exists in the right click menu, I think there is a small improvement to be made here.
There is no reason to hide such an important step of your interaction with the trash in some menu. The two most important actions you can perform within the trash is to restore a deleted file and delete them for good.

The new button would restore ("Wiederherstellen") one or more files you selected. Like the button to delete the files permanently it would be grey ('inactive') when no file is selected. If one or more files are selected it perform the same action to restore the files just like the right click menu.
