Sure is ! BUT - a selected ".." item in a file list is not logged and passed to functions which perform tasks like deletion. To double-check this, I've just stepped through the process you described, using a debugger, and found no attempt to process a ".." entry. Which raises the question - what is happening in your circumstances ? You are right to be wary, but can you please do a test? Create a discardable directory with a child directory, which in turn has a few items. Make sure the delete-confirmation option is in force. Do your deletion of all the contents of that child directory.
