Custom duration for trash auto-delete
Allow admins to create a custom duration (e.g. 3 years) for the auto-deletion of the trash.

Yes please. Even if not custom, some options between 90 days and "Never Delete" would be great. 6 months, 1 year, 2 years would be a start.

Use case:
Currently there is no option between 90 days and "never delete". There are some events that occur on an annual basis. Since we don't want to use "never delete" since that's bad practice and against our policy to keep files forever, we use 90 days. We (the Admin team here) often get requests to recover files when its too late. The event has rolled around again and the user realizes that they've accidentally deleted files related to that event. They don't notice until the event rolls around again, so if this feature were available, I'd set our enterprise deletion periodicity to one year.
