Bug Description
If a volume snapshot is created from a volume, the volume is unable to be deleted if the snapshot is still active. Can this volume snapshot live independent of this volume?

Hi Vincent, so treating this as a question... the answer is that currently NO the snapshots are tied to the originating volume. Depending on the storage back and and how they've implemented snapshot functionality this is a requirement.
There is a bug that is intended to modify this such that it can be configured depending on the back-end being used or even better perhaps we can just make the decision intelligently and log a useful message.
