Supervised Users can use the "X" to remove any profiles

Project Member Reported by meggynwatkins@chromium.org, Dec 3 2016

Issue description

Chrome Version: 55.0.2883.75
OS: Mac, OS X 10.12.1

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) Switch to supervised user's chrome profile
(2) Open settings
(3) Point to supervisor's chrome profile
(4) Click "X"

What is the expected result?
A message for supervised users that says "You can't delete other profiles" or (at least) "You can't delete your supervisor's profile"

What happens instead?
It appears that I can delete the profile (see attached image). I didn't confirm by clicking "remove," because I don't actually want to delete my profile.

This should be a quick fix.

I'm not sure - also everyone can delete profiles via the user manager (user button in the top right -> Manage people). And the user manager doesn't have a concept of "current user"; it's supposed to be closer to the ChromeOS signin screen.

We do have a checkbox in chrome://settings for "Let anyone add a person to Chrome", maybe that should also cover deleting profiles?

There's ongoing work with the new user manager and new settings page which should eventually solve this.
