#55526 — Now you see it, now you ... see it.

Just got used to being able (again) to hide Thoth with cmd-H, when I
decided to logout/in so that my defaults write to get rid of
rubber-banding could take effect.

Now Thoth is back to its old tricks and I can only hide it from the
Duck - again.

Must be a Mavericks thing.

On the plus side I see one can now empty Trashes on different volumes
simultaneously.

Not on my four Macs that are running Mavericks. I can hid Thoth 1.9.1.2
at any time with Cmd-H.

I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that
you will say in your entire life.

You're talking about Finder? Finder has always done that.

Hummmm - OK. I' was sure I was always being told "Trash is busy being
emptied" or somesuch.

One can't add an item to the trash while it is being emptied. But 
simultaneous emptying of the trash on all volumes has always been the 
way it has worked.

No, that's not what I mean. Yes, I thought it was not possible to add
something to the Trash while it was being emptied. But the other day I
*was* able to add stuff, from volume2, to the Trash, while it was being
emptied of stuff originally only from volume1. That is, when I asked to
empty it, it had nothing in it from Volume2, only stuff from Volume1.
Then, wile it was being emptied of stuff from Volume1, I was able to
add stuff from Volume2.

And, what's more, while the stuff from volume1 was being emptied, I did
Empty Trash again and it did so in parallel. There were two progress
bars, too.

That hasn't been the case in a while.

Well, it is, but not in a way that the user notices. No more "You can't
add an item to the trash" dialog forcing you o try again later. It
simply queues up the move and does it silently after the delete
completes.
