Yes, the current approach is not really perfect when you enable
`delete-by-moving-to-trash' globally, but when enabling it only for
example for eshell or dired mode, I think it's quite good.

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun th-dired-mode-init ()
  (set (make-local-variable 'delete-by-moving-to-trash) t))

(add-hook 'dired-mode-hook 'th-dired-mode-init t)
