Retaining CAD files / Orphaning

When CAD files are imported to InfoDrainage they retain the link to the CAD file, like a CAD Xref which is good. However if that file is moved, or InfoDrainage cannot access it, an error box is prompted and the entire CAD file is just deleted from the model.

It would be more useful if the CAD file acted the same as CAD Xref where a file becomes 'Not Found' or 'Orphaned' so the user could redirect the path and the file is retained.
