In Lion how does one use Time Machine to recover files from one's old trash?

In The Leopards you opened your current trash window and then slipped into Time Machine; your open trash window followed you into the past. Not anymore, in Lion your Trash window morphs as you enter Time Machine into a finder window of your HOME directory, and you just can't get to Trash from there. My recollection is that Trash(es) are housed in ROOT's domain. In The Leopards the Trash icon had special permissions to follow you there in Time Machine. Something changed in Lion. Does this mean one has to log in as root to enter Time Machine to recover one's own trash ?
