Hi All,

just to let you know that I have tested the 3.6.2 RC1 and I can confirm 
that both problems are fixed with this version.

1. USB device list get refreshed automatically
2. USB device could be attached to the VM through the frontend

So looking forward for the final release of 3.6.2!

Best regards and great work!
Christoph
