As the doc string of move-file-to-trash says:

If the function `system-move-file-to-trash' is defined, call it
 with FILENAME as an argument.

So just define a function that checks whether FILENAME is a Tramp file
name or not, and delete the file if it is, but trash otherwise.

So I don't think there's anything to be done here on the Emacs side, and
I'm closing this bug report.
