Can Hazel operate directly on the Trash folder?

Some files that end up in Trash will never ever need restoring. A perfect example is when my iTunes updates iphone apps, it deleted the old *.ipa file. Since I am never going to overwrite the newer copy, then could just get permanently deleted. Is there a way for Hazel to monitor my trash and delete files based on rules?

While you can add your trash folder to Hazel, there are no actions to directly delete a file. You'd probably have to use a script at that point.
