Brilliant explanation, clear, and well documented with screen shots. You answered more than one question that I've had for some time. Thank you.

Oops! The formatting/bullet-list got garbled (admin, please delete my previous/duplicate posts).
If you want to access quickly Trash from an already open Finder window:
1) show hidden files (Google on how...)
2) drag the /Users/Home/.Trash hidden folder to the sidebar
3) hide hidden files back (the .Trash in the sidebar still displays)
Bingo!

All you have to do is go to the user's folder in the finder and then go to Open Folder in the "Go" menu and type .trash. That opens the trash folder. No need to get all crazy with scripts.

I suddenly realized there is no direct way to access the Trash, other than via the dock itself.

Wow, how simple... And I was searching for this quite a time I'm using it for Quicksilver.
