+1 from me

I was just bitten by that. One of our 3 LTO-4 drives seems to have
problems. To eliminate other sources of error I started a job manually
in bconsole and specified a different drive and pool for this job.

But due to the pool definition for this job, the pool and the storage
device I specified in bconsole wasn't honored.

This is highly confusing and error prone.
