I'm sure Rich intends to make it warn-and-continue at some point,
and if I cared enough Right Now I'd fix it myself.  But in the
meantime it's worth pointing out (you may know this, others may
not) that you can recover from this by uncompressing and fixing
the file:

   gunzip -c exercise_notation.rg > exercise_notation.xml

then edit the paths in the <audiofiles> section so they're pointing
somewhere that exists on your system, then gzip -c back to a .rg file.

Of course the audio file is only in exercise_notation by mistake;
I was probably messing around with the audio file dialog while
editing it yesterday.  I'll take it out when I have a moment.
