@niquewoodhouse Shouldn't we remove the settings menu item in this case?

@niquewoodhouse Shouldn't we remove the settings menu item in this case?

I don't think we should no. This action (tap on avatar/name/MXiD) not be as discoverable as a way to get to settings. It might also be that in the near future settings change so tapping that area takes you to a dedicated screen in settings about your profile, or switch profile.

Someone might be looking for settings that they don't think have anything to do with their account, so I'd prefer to keep both.
