Beyond this discussion, I don't see security problem. When somebody
has sudo rights, then that person can transfer files anywhere that
person wants.
Settings in Emacs to delete by moving trash are explicit decisions of
user. Same with `sudo'. Administrator gives privilege to `sudoer',
and that sudoer may do what he thinks is right and good.
I would personally prefer that sudo editing goes in trash.
Anyway, when editing with sudo I see this file:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 Jan 2 19:27 .#at.deny ->
admin@protected.1904257840789327597
which is dangling symlink, do you know about it? Is it bug?
