Item11504: File deleted on system, but no notication that file does not exist when performing "manage" action

I have deleted some files in the Trash/TrashAttachment folder, but when I click on the action "manage" on the web, there's no indication that my file does not exist until I try to perform an action.

Unfortunately this is working as designed. The cost of having Store access the file system for every topic view to determine if the attachment Meta is in sync with the file system is prohibitive. There are a couple of ways to deal with this.

1. Not Recommended is to enable the deprecated {RCS}{AutoAttachPubFiles} option. This will cause the Store to validate the Attachment Meta for every topic view.
2. Use the UpdateAttachmentsPlugin. This plugin can re-synchronize the file system with the topic Metadata. This is the preferred solution.

It's worth noting that we really should ship this functionality by default.

I think the consensus in DeprecateAutoAttach was that we need the function, but it doesn't have to be a default plugin. I agree that it ought to be default functionality.
