Summary: Remove "You"-item from the Session View in the roster
Initial Comment:
The Session-View in the roster view has an item called "You", it does not
behave like the other members of the session and the only two options available
are to stop the session and change the color. The issue is that this item takes
real estate and adds little to no value. There is already a big stop button for
the session, and the session is displayed because one takes part in it. The
only missing functionality would be to change the color and this could/should
be moved somewhere else.

Reopened, thought that the followees are showed under this tree item, which
is not the case.

Message:
With release 12.3.12 the tree item has now additional sub entries and so
cannot be removed any longer.

Message:
Removing the "you" entry would lose the information which color i have in
the session. This would have to move somewhere else, but there is no
appropriate place at the moment.

Message:
I already implemented a remembering yes/no dialog for closing the session
if the host remains alone.
DO not remove this from the code now, i will remove it in my prototype
which still needs a code review - your changes would be lost by my changes
anyway.

Message:
If you remove this, you also have to make sure, that when the last peer
leaves, the session is stopped too on the host side. Currently the host
remains in an empty session. Before you writing a bug against this, no this
is the current behavior because you can start inviting another buddy.

Message:
I vote for removing the entry for the user himself/herself in the session
BuddySessionDisplayComposite, too.
The tree element behaves differently compared to all other tree items which
is bad and violates the eclipse guidelines. It is only used for
a) changing the color of the user for fun (never saw a user changing the
color because it makes sense to him/her) > move the option to the
preferences for disabled users..
b) in a session of two users, they click on "you" first, then understand
"you" is not "you" in their terms of thinking ("you" is used for the other
user while talking) and click on the other users contxt menu and find the
actions they wanted to start.
I guess it was introduced so people are aware that they are part of the
currently running session. I don't think i need to explain in detail why
that is pretty useless..
