 I have a project with 5 layers. One is a ShapeFile that I inadvertently
 deleted.

 When the project loads, I get a '''QGIS Project Read Error''' dialog. See
 attached image. If I select '''Cancel''', then the entire project is
 unloaded. If I press '''OK''' but cannot locate the ShapeFile (and I can't
 because, again, I deleted it) and hit '''Cancel''' in the file browsing
 dialog, then the project also unloads.

 If I press '''Cancel''', or if I press '''OK''' but cannot find the
 project, I should at least have the project loaded without the missing
 layer. Right now, my project is completely unusable until I restore the
 ShapeFile.
