When using an image field, and uploading an image which exceeds PHP's upload size limits, and the error message "An unrecoverable error occurred. The uploaded file likely exceeded the maximum file size (4 MB) that this server supports." is returned, there's an unpleasant side effect, which is that the field widget disappears from the form.

User is forced to reload the page and start over.

The widget doesn't disappear under other error conditions after using the "Upload" button, so, this particular error condition shouldn't yield this result either.
