 In `wp_delete_post` we have this neat filter `pre_delete_post` whether to
 proceed with deletion. I was wondering why we don't have that for
 `wp_trash_post`, i.e. `pre_trash_post`.

 It can cause some issues, for example in our extensions we're querying
 custom post types based on their trash status, and there are cases where
 we don't want to allow them to be trashed (e.g. they have another post
 type that links to the to-be-trashed one). However, once they're trashed,
 our queries based on their trash status are erroneous.


 Another point that was made by Marius Jensen on #core:
 > I see no issue with introducing it to maintain parity with the delete
 feature (trashing is a soft delete after all)
