There's no exact one right way to do this. Windows shows the archive

archive to its own directory. Still another option would be
decompressing the archive into its own directory and then moving the
archive into the local user trash directory. It's just a matter of
what you're used to, so the real issue is merely that the behavior has
changed, rather than it's inherently incorrect behavior.


IMHO decompressing by default is a bad behavior, what about big archives and you only want to check the contents? what about if the user just created a new archive and want to check y everything needed is inside? another decompressed copy? the archive removed when the user just created it

I think the more user friendly solution is for gvfs to have a archive filesystem so users are able to use files like they are part of the real filesystem (via gvfs fuse integration), Instead of decompressing all files every time the user decide to browse the contents.
