How about Freedesktop::File::Trash ?  With FD aiming to be a standard, I 
would rather see all of the modules which implement it under a single 
tlns (even in a tree which mirrors the generic modules which are 
already there -- e.g. FreeDesktop::Image::Thumbnail for the thumbnails 
standard, etc.)

X11::FreeDesktop:DesktopEntry is the only precedent and I'm inclined to 
think it should have been in the FD tlns as FreeDesktop::DesktopEntry.

IMO, File::Trash::FreeDesktop sounds too much like it aims to trash my 
fd-related files :-)
