Open files in the trash can

If you moved some files to trash and you are still not sure if it is ok to delete them (especially if they have explicit names like "untitled-x.txt", "toto.tif", etc.), it is possible to open them without moving them out of the trash. Remember that double-clicking a file in the trash won't open it.
However, by control-clicking on the file and selecting the "Open with" contextual menu item, the file will open in the selected app. Now you can review your file before deleting it without having to move it to the desktop first.
NOTE: Only works on pre-10.3 systems...
