Should LyX exit more gracefully here?

Missing user LyX directory
----------------------------------------
You have specified a non-existent user LyX directory,
/home/scott/lyxbuilds/master/user-dir.
It is needed to keep your own configuration.
Assuming answer is &Exit LyX
Note that this only happens in devel mode. In release mode, we continue
and exit in the usual way. So I think this one is fine, though maybe we
don't really need to assert in this case. You might could check some
other flag?
There's actually a general need to look through all the LASSERT
statements from this point of view. In many cases, we just continue in
release mode if the assertion fails, when that is clearly going to lead
to a crash, and we could take some other remedial action. Often, just
returning out of that function will do.
