> 2. Permanent shared directories disappear after VirtualBox restart.

It seems that the following line always stays unchanged:
<SharedFolders/>

I manually replaced it with the following:
<SharedFolders>
<SharedFolder hostPath="/usr/home/avg/tmp" name="tmp" writable="true"/>
</SharedFolders>

But when I started VirtualBox it immediately magically went back to the previous
state. Although VirtualBox itself showed that share as configured and permanent.

Seems like a bug in some configuration saving logic.
