--- Comment #2 from ttrovo <vleett at yandex.ru> ---
> we had many complaints about Dolphin showing annoying "this path cannot be found" messages on launch when attempting to restore tabs for inaccessible locations.

Please revert this regression. The reasons:

1) The message was not annoying, it was banner at the top, not some modal
messagebox. This message still exist if you delete the directory that is opened
in tab. And that's fine, perfect.

2) If there are really people who were annoyed with "not found" message, then
are using some unmounted directories and and now they should be pleased having
7 empty tabs of "Home"? Makes no sense. 

3) And the most important - the session is lost! It's a loss of information, it
is not acceptable, it's like deleting user files.
Because location can be very important - those can be some directories that
user was working in and will FORGET about it after this information is
discarded.

Nate Graham, can something be done to revert the current behavior? I will be
wokring against this wrong decision. 
If you need someone the be convinced about this decision being wrong - please
tell me. Who are those people who like to loose their information and have
empty tabs anyway?
