I'm very sorry to hear you lost data unexpectedly, we work hard to prevent
that. In version 0.50 the "delete page" dialog gives a detailed list of
files that will be deleted when you continue. Did you see this dialogue? If
so should we make it more clear in some way?

I agree zim should use the Trash, there is an open bug report for that
here:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/zim/+bug/297273
