Profile pictures can't be removed
Summary
Once a profile picture has been uploaded for an account, it can be replaced but not removed. There's no way to switch back to gravatar.com images.
Steps to reproduce
- Create an account w/ an email address available on gravatar.com
- The image from gravatar.com should show up eventually
- Edit your profile settings, upload a profile picture
- New image is shown for user
What is the current bug behavior?
There's no means to remove the uploaded image. One can simply replace it.
What is the expected correct behavior?
There should be an input (checkbox or else) to delete the currently assigned profile picture without uploading a new one. Doing that should reset the account to a gravatar image, if available.

@christian.aust There is an option to remove the avatar in the user's profile settings:
Please reopen this issue if you find that not to be the case
OK, i guess I understand:
- Initially Gitlab used my profile image from gravatar.com. That's why there was no "remove avatar" button. I falsely assumed that this was an image I uploaded before and missed the option to remove it.
- After uploading an image, it takes another refresh of the "Edit profile" page before the button appears. It doesn't appear instantly after uploading an image.
There is in fact a button to remove the avatar. But it's not there all the time (could be disabled if inapplicable). The hint "change it on gravatar.com" is very subtle, I for one did not understand that this image eventually came form there. That could be stronger.
