Authoring tabs throws error after deleting page from within Site area

Hi

I have noticed that if one deletes a page from within the site area, 
then one is being re-directed to
the trash, but one doesn't really notice this. When then clicking on the 
Authoring tab one receices an error.

I think this is very confusing, because one doesn't understand why this 
is happening.

I think we should introduce a screen saying something like:

"This page has been moved to the trash. How do you want to proceed?

- Go to parent page ...
- Go to page within trash ...

WDYT?

Michi

added this issue to bugzilla a while ago:

http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=39077

i prefer bob's approach over the one i suggested in the report.

I think Lenya should just go straight to the parent page, without any
prompting.  After one deletes a page one normally doesn't want to do
anything else with it.  And if one is deleting a number of pages then
a repetitive prompt for an unlikely action would be annoying.
