What it does
Moves deleted worlds to trash instead of deleting instantly
Why should it be in the modpack
UX improvement
Why shouldn't it be in the modpack
Unexpected for users (similar to #165) as some may delete the worlds to gain storage space and this means they will not get it until they empty the trash. Also, on Linux it expects Gnome or its dependencies, which may leave out many FO users (I assume I do have a lot of Linux users due to the popularity of the MultiMC editions).

Tested on a non-GNOME Linux DE (KDE to be exact) does NOT work, sadly :(
( Clean FO installation, MultiMC auto-upgrade )
Did you test that ?
Q: Does this support all operating systems?
A: Moving an item to the recycle bin/trash varies a lot between operating systems, so this is indeed not guaranteed to work on all systems. This mod has been tested to work on Windows and Mac. Other Gnome based Unix systems should work, too (1.18+ only). If your Linux system is not supported, running apt-get install libgnome2-0 in terminal for installing the necessary components might just do the trick. If your system is not supported, worlds will be deleted using the vanilla method, meaning they're gone forever.
As nice as it would be, it is inconsistent across operating systems/desktop environments and therefore FO would give a potentially significant amount of users (according to MultiMC version downloads) high expectations and not actually deliver upon it. So, I can only consider this again when someone makes a PR to support the majority of Linux distros/desktop environments as well.
