When a guest joins a collaboration session, the host receives a notification that also includes the ability to remove that user. However, as soon as the host dismisses a join notification, they no longer have a way to remove the corresponding user from the session (which is a little awkward). In order to provide hosts with complete control over their guest list, without requiring them to retain join notifications for every guest, we should introduce a simple way to kick out a user at any time (e.g. a new “Remove Guest” command in VS Code, a “Remove Guest” context menu item associated with the user avatar in VS).
As suggested by #342, this action should likely result in the user being “blocked”, so that they couldn’t immediately re-join the session after being removed. Otherwise, the host would potentially need to keep removing a misbehaving user. I’d love to hear feedback on this behavior from folks, as well as what the right name for this action should be (e.g. block, kick, remove?)

We just shipped an update that includes a new VS Live Share explore view. Among other things, this displays the set of participants, and allows you to remove any of them from the session 🚀
