Comment:

 I agree with Paul.  The current patch doesn't change how the
 `xprofile_filter_link_profile_data()` function works.

 @slaFFik - I would rework the patch so we add a third parameter -
 `$field_id` - to `xprofile_filter_link_profile_data()`.  This is so the
 `'bp_get_the_profile_field_value'` filter will continue to work as-is.

 Then instead of looking at the `$field` global in the
 `xprofile_filter_link_profile_data()` function, we do `$field =
 xprofile_get_field( $field_id );`.

 Then in your custom AJAX call, you could do this:
 `xprofile_filter_link_profile_data( $field_value, $field_data['type'],
 $field_id )`
