Thanks for having a look at this and for your suggestion! The idea
behind this patch was to avoid the volume simply disappearing (from the
user's point of view). That way, the volume would still be there. In
theory, if the storage "re-appeared", it could even be mounted again as
it's not gone from the configuration. But it doesn't really make that
much sense, I agree.

I'll add the warnings you suggested for a v7.
