Reverted the commit.

It was unreliable, we need a way to find out exactly how many file transfers (and not generally how many applications) are active with the contact. Adding methods to check such thing would have once again introduced problems.. exactly the thing we're trying to avoid before the release.

I've commented out the thing in-place, it's in ChatWindow::queryClose() .

Postponing it to KMess 1.6.

@diederik: weren't you studying a solution for this issue?

We tried yesterday to find a way but it was as unreliable as the original one.

There should be something in Application List to instantly find out which kinds of applications are active, to warn the user about what is exactly going on between him/her and the contact.
