Comment (by imath):

 I agree at 100% !
 I also think it's hard to do half of the path without generating some
 frustration for some users.
 "basic" i doubt we can stay too basic :)
 I think we must stay very customizable/overridable. The cover photo is an
 interesting feature because it can help us really improve the BP
 Attachments API so that we have a library to really attach any kind of
 "public" file to any kind of BuddyPress objects.
 But we need to provide the user a way to manage these files (remove/set as
 avatar/set as cover...)
 Using some filters/actions it's already possible to use the BP Attachments
 API to do this, but it really should be converted into a more "visible"
 feature imho. The cover photo can help us do that :)
