Comment:

 >...we could copy bbPress' user edit profile code and use it as a fallback
 if BP's own Extended Profiles component is disabled.

 Maybe not surprisingly, I strongly support this.

 >If we were to go this route, we'd also have to consider where this page
 should live.

 For the sake of consistency with Extended Profiles, I agree that
 /members/USERNAME/profile/edit/ would be more appropriate, but the profile
 would be so light-weight without custom fields that I think having both an
 edit and a settings page for editing your profile would become redundant,
 even if they inherently serve slightly different purposes.
