This was discussed and the problem with that is that it's not backwards
compatible. Current clients and ISV software expects to be able to
DELETE a disk, and after that it expects that the disk is gone. If we
change behavior so that DELETE becomes detach by default, then old
clients when they DELETE without any flags will instead create a
floating disk.
