How about this solution:

* Keep all information in the database, even when not all images are found on startup.
* Keep a date-stamp for each image, which tells you how many DigiKam Startups ago the image was last seen.
* When the amount of images that has not been seen for, say, 10 startups reaches a certain limit, display a dialog with a very short and simple question, like this:

"There are xx images that have not been spotted by DigiKam for a while. They are probably moved or deleted. In order to save space, do you want Digikam to forget about them?

I think this is something that any user can understand.
