I got bitten by that too. (Also on a Dell...)
The VM was in a saved state I didn't want to discard, so I wondered
whether it wouldn't be possible to allow access to parts of the
machine configuration while saved, or at least to the "Devices"
menu. If I can change those settings for a running VM, why
not collect changes and propagate them when it's loaded again?

The missing drive needn't have been a fatal error anyway. Just
pop up a big ugly warning and let the user decide.

MfG, Ulrich
