Works for me. Will move the window removal to another patch in this topic 
branch and abandon this patch.

That said, the rationale behind this patch was/is that I believe that a 
software that unobtrusively warns about obviously wrong configuration/user 
input is friendlier and more pleasent to use than a silent one - even if this 
somehow brokes the unix tradition (perhaps) :)

And this applies even to a system daemon like VDSM, which is already a quite 
complex beast to tune.

So it is more about friendliness than prudence, I'm firmly at your side in the 
'garbage in, garbage out' camp.
