• Added a new project_panel::Trash action and changed the default behavior for backspace and delete in the project panel to send a file to the systems trash, instead of permanently deleting it (#7228, #5094). The original behavior can be restored by adding the following section to your keybindings:

{
    "context": "ProjectPanel",
    "bindings": {
        "backspace": "project_panel::Delete",
        "delete": "project_panel::Delete",
    }
