Bug: communities with no members....

You argument is valid for "important" communities, but not for trash 
communities, that were left by error or by mis usage.

I think the best behaviour should be like in yahoogroups:

--> If the only admin of a community tries to leave, and there are other 
members, a message should tell him/her that he/she should first define 
another user as admin so that he/she can leave.
--> If there is no other members in the community, there should be a 
really big and highlighted message warning that, since this person is 
the only member, the community will be removed if he/she leaves. So the 
system highly recommends that the user tries to find another user to 
join and become admin, to leave afterwards, and that in this moment, if 
the person REALLY wants to remove the community, he/she will be able to 
leave and the community will disappear.

    In this way, we prevent the system to have orphan communities, which 
are useless and may accumulate becoming trash.
