Yes, I think that's where it should be implemented.

I suspect we'll run into problems with the .trash/<uid> thing.  What directory
do we put .trash in?  The top-level of the mountpoint?   The user might not
be able to access that if he's in a chroot.  And UIDs are now per-nsproxy
things - UIDs are already per-uid-namespace things. So we can have two or more
different users using UID 42.

It all need to be thrashed out with the containerisation and VFS guys.
