Selective deletion for recycle bin

Our recycle bin is very full, but I don't want to delete all of it in case there are any recent deletions that need to be restored (we just had that happen today, in fact). It would be wonderful if there was an option to selectively delete items from the recycle bin, or to delete any items that were "recycled" before a certain date. For that matter, it would also be great to see the deletion date on the items, as there's no indication as to which ones were deleted recently and which have been there for the past year.
