In general, in order to delete a disk while it is attached to a running VM,
the disk has to be deactivated (hotunplugged) first so it won't be
accessible for read and write from the VM.
In the 'edit' VM prompt there is no option to deactivate the disk, it
should be done from the disks subtab under the virtual machine.

Actually, I just tried to create a new disk via the 'Edit'
menu once
I'd deleted it from the 'Disks' tab, and it threw an exception.
Attached is the console log.
