Screenshot of the dialog

When emptying the trash, a misleading dialog shows up:

  Could not delete file "foo".

  Objects in trash may not be changed.
  Do you want to skip it?

  [Cancel] [Retry] [Yes] [Yes to all]

There are a few things wrong here:
- The file Thunar complains about is not there.
- The permissions of all file (at least the ones visible in trash) were the same, so I have no idea why it complains about some files
- When you click "Yes" or "Yes to all", the file is being deleted, while it should be skipped.

This very much looks like a duplicate. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
