[Python-ideas] shutil.trash()

Hi all,

A while ago, I've developed this library, send2trash ( 
https://bitbucket.org/hsoft/send2trash ), which can send files to trash 
on Mac OS X, Windows, and any platform that conforms to FreeDesktop.

The current version uses ctypes, but earlier versions were straight C 
modules.

I was wondering if you think this has a place in the stdlib, maybe as 
"shutil.trash()"?
