Summary: Account dropdown: Missing indication which is active account

Initial Comment:
The dropdown list of xmpp accounts in the saros view is missing an indication 
which one is the active account. Would also expect the dropdown list to 
indicate wether i am connected or not.

Don't make the user think.
"But he can see that he is connected as xy in the ConnectionStateComposite" > 
nope, that only shows the xmpp id, not if connected or not
-> none of the usability test users managed to find out if they are connected 
or not using the ConnectionStateComposite (sic..)

One of the fixes is to include "(connected)" to the title text of the 
ConnectionStateComposite after the xmpp id, but this still doesn't  prevent the 
dropdown list from needing improvement.

Message:
Please also note: Clicking on an account in the connection list ejects me
from the session without a warning.

Clicking on the connect button has the same issue. This should display a 
prompt if the user really intended to do that (e.g. misclick on connect
icon instead of "add buddy")...
