Steps to reproduce the problem

  1. Feature account Y on account X's profile (go to Y in web app, click three-dots menu, click "Feature on profile")
  2. Account Y closes and moves to account Z
  3. Account Y is still featured on account X's profile, but if you go to Y while signed in as X, the three-dots menu allows you to mention, DM, mute, block or report Y, but there is no way to un-feature Y, the closed account, from X's profile

This perhaps should have been handled when using the automatic account transfer method

This has implications for user safety in cases where people are trying to move from a more identifiable username to a less identifiable one
...

Expected behaviour

There should be a way to un-feature a profile that has been disabled

Actual behaviour

There is no way to un-feature a profile that has been disabled

Detailed description

After an account is closed/moved, the three-dots menu provides no means to un-feature them
