Feature request: Remove from catalog even if tape still in device

[mkretzer]

Hello,

today we had a tape drive fault in a way that a tape got stuck in the drive (and is most likely defective as well).

Since the data on that tape needs to be re-written we want to remove it from catalog and re-start the job with the remaining working drives. Problem is that for this to work we have to make the tape library unavailable as only then we can remove a tape from the catalog as online tapes cannot be removed from catalog.

It would be good if a "remove from catalog" would be possible via the hidden Ctrl menu even for still visible tapes!
