User's status icon without user's name.

As in summary.

Remove user's name, just leave status icon. Or allow to hide user's full name.

A few reasons for that:
 * User's are not stupid, they know their names.
 * If user has a really long name, ie "Miguel Fernandez Gonzales", it takes too much space.
 * Name is repeated in the menu...
