I noticed that if calibre can't find the database (I had that USB drive turned off) it actually 'loses' the database from it's memory. That is, once the drive was turned back on, it didn't find the database again, but rather had a new default entry.

Would it make sense that in this type of situation a) calibre gave you a warning and b)gave you the choice of continuing with a new default database, or of exiting immediately (and not erasing the currently unavailable location)?

Or am I missing something/doing something wrong here?
