[Bacula-users] must autochanger error be Fatal?

 From time to time my library messes up a tape change, but the mtx-changer 
script 
(modified by me) detects this and exits with return value of 1 to indicate 
failure. 
In this case, bacula kills the job with a Fatal Error. I would prefer that 
bacula ask 
for operator intervention to fix the tape load and then continue after I 
manually 
mount it. Otherwise all the time it spent writing tapes up to the point of 
failure is 
wasted and must be run again. Does that make sense?  Is it possible?  A feature 
request maybe?


Here is some sample output from such a case:
