Research direction

Start by tracing how Pix handles the Del key while viewing a photo and compare that behavior with the issue's expected Xviewer behavior. Confirm the current deletion path and identify how the recycle bin is selected. Done means pressing Del sends the photo to the recycle bin by default rather than permanently deleting it.
