Describe the problem

It's a minor glitch, but when a board is disconnected when the board select dialog is open, it discards the state selected by the user.

To reproduce

• Have a connected and recognized board as the selected one in IDE2 (for me it was MKR1000),
• Open the board selector dialog,
• Filter for nano,
• Select Arduino Nano (you will see the green checkmark next to the selected board),
• Unplug the MKR1000, and the board select dialog loses the Arduino Nano board selected by the user.

The two events are unrelated.

The user has to reselect Nano after detaching the board and pick an available port. This step must not be required.
