IDK why but sf.net didn't feel like sending an update notification when 
I added a comment to the bug, at least I didn't get one. Anyways here it is.

I'll have a look, I'm kinda familiar with that part of the code.

I believe we currently simply ignore this case in the code. If the project
doesn't exist anymore, we don't send any activities, which means the peers
won't notice anything from the deletion.

We could try to prevent it, but what if the user didn't delete the project
from within Eclipse, but e.g. in Windows Explorer, then did a refresh in
Eclipse? Or if another plugin deletes the project? We can't prevent that,
but how do we handle it? Leaving the session seems like the easiest way
out, except maybe if there are other shared projects in the session. We
still shouldn't have the peers copies deleted.

After looking at the code I don't think that it's possible to prevent 
the deletion. There is a way to do that in Eclipse, but it's only for 
team providers, and we can't use it. I believe the best we can do is to 
display a warning "You should leave the session before deleting the 
project" or "You will leave... " .
