Description

This likely has been a problem before 4.6, but 4.6 is where I first explored the issue in more detail.

From an e-mail I sent to dev@:

Hi,

I noticed that the GUI reports what appears to be success when I try to delete a snapshot, but the snapshot is not really being deleted.

I've tracked down where the snapshot-delete commands fails (as it should fail in this test scenario) and an exception is thrown.

If I try to delete the snapshot from CloudMonkey, I see the correct error message.

If I try to delete the snapshot from the GUI, the GUI claims the command was successful, but the snapshot is (as expected) not deleted.

I wonder if this is a general GUI problem with regards to async commands that fail.

Does anyone know?

Thanks!
