Summary:
Or "This device is no longer connected.". Those MODAL popups in Xcode are useless. They should be a better way (non modal) to notify the user the iPhone disconnected. Most of the times, I don't want to be notified. I know I disconnected the iPhone.

Steps to Reproduce:
Open Xcode. If not yet done, plug iPhone or iPad. Unplug it.

Expected Results:
A non modal notification (why not just use a Notification in Mountain Lion!)

Actual Results:
A Modal popup, very annoying. Actual two most of the times!
