Authors can no longer open (and therefore) edit or read a content item whose asset has been deleted.

To reproduce:

Upload an image in Assets app.

Create item in content app with an asset property. And select the uploaded image and save.

Delete the image from within the Assets app.

Try to edit the item in the content item.

Expected:

I can edit and the asset property shows that the asset is missing.

Actual:

Get an exception and cannot open the item.

Sub-app failed to start: detail

Note:

I have only tested on SaaS. Problem should be fixed on SaaS - and if it happens on OnPrem as well it also be fixed there.. Might be general issue with external-assets.
