Comment:

 >  but I believe the xprofile visibility settings are so specific, they
 wouldn't work without a lot of adjustments for other types of data.

 +1. I'm totally behind the idea of working toward privacy/visibility
 features that will work across more content types, but just porting over
 the stuff from the xprofile component won't work. (We could keep the
 levels - 'loggedin', 'friends', etc, but that's about it.)

 I'm going to put this ticket in Future Release, where we can use it for
 discussion of what a more general privacy schema might look like. It'll
 probably be the kind of thing that gets implemented in a plugin first,
 with some prerequisite mods made to BP to handle some of the fancy
 filtering that'll be necessary. You might have a look at Jeff Sayre's bp-
 privacy component as a starting point.
