From time to time I get an error-popup when searching for updates:

"Some Sites couldn't be found"

one then needs to open the details, copy the offending sites, go to the settings, found the site there, remove/edit/... them then.

It would be more convenient if instead of a generic error popup the user is presented with a list of sites that failed (+the reason) and then can choose to delete and/or edit them directly.

Similar things happen in the PDE Targeteditor if one adds a site but no update-site is found the user is asked if he likes to edit the location.
