Recent projects disappear too happily

I have projects on network drives which are sometimes mapped and sometimes not. When not available, Code::Blocks automatically removes those projects from recent projects list, but I still want to open them later (when the networked drive is online).

Warning 'The perspective '%s' has changed. Do you want to save it?' is a poor defense.

I propose to disable automatic project removal:

Stale projects can still be removed manually, by clicking on them.
