Public bug reported:

Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
On a normal volume, "delete" puts thing in Trash and shift-delete really
deletes. On a read-only volume, "delete" really deletes. However when
you try shift-delete, you would expect it to really delete here also.
But nothing happens - no reaction to the key press.

Thus can be really confusing, especially if you have the habit of using
shift-delete most of the time.
