The bug here is that it is not handled automatically. The user should not be required to edit fstab at all when using ubuntu but they might well be expected to remove a windows partition once they got used to using ubuntu and no longer required a dual boot. This is exactly the issue that might occur in this situation.
I raised this bug a long time ago, no idea if it's still an issue with latest ubuntu or not!
