How odd. When deleting a file by dragging it to the trash, no 'Put Back' facility appears. However, if I delete a file via Cmd+Delete, then the 'Put Back' facility does appear in the context menu. Can someone else try that please?

Edit: Seems to have fixed itself. However, this might be a bug. Can someone else try to replicate this behaviour?
Now that you mention this strange behaviour, I wonder if it is related to the fact that I am using Path Finder to delete files ... probably it does something similar to Cmd+Delete in Finder.
I am getting the contextual menu item, "Put back" when choosing an item in the Trash. If you merely right click on Trash you will not get the menu entry.
I was not using the menu item on the trash folder ... I had selected the file in Trash and then attempted to use the File menu. I think it must be, as previously suggested, related to how the file is deleted.
If you merely right click on Trash you will not get the menu entry.
I was right clicking on the file itself. The option did not appear under the 'Action' button either. Having tried again it seems that Finder is a little selective in allowing multiple 'Put Backs'. I could recover 3 Pages files, but Finder only let me Put Back 1 JPEG file at a time!
