This is actually intentional; otherwise there would be no visible way to remove the trash from the desktop! However maybe we should add a special case for this to change the text to "Remove Trash" because the idea of trashing the trash is pretty bizarre to most users.

Git commit 3fd6ad2465df773caf9aa073efb23ed50c086401 by Nate Graham. Committed on 29/01/2025 at 19:24. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. Desktop: Make context menu for trash link and contents more contextual There's already some special handling for the context menu of the trash link, but it's currently not contextual enough: the menu shows many items that are either not relevant to the trash, or expose the implementation detail that the item is actually a .desktop file. The same is true for items *in* the trash. Expand on this to clean up their menus even more.
