Comment (by johnjamesjacoby):

 This is going to be tricky. I don't think we have adequate functions for
 determining a users actual status.

 * `bp_is_user_deleted()` checks `2 == $user->user_status` which conflicts
 with our more recent sign-ups status. It also checks `$user->deleted`
 which appears to be completely unsupported by WordPress core.
 * We should probably have something like `bp_is_user_pending()` to tell us
 "This person signed up, but hasn't activated their account."
 * All of our `bp_is_user_` status functions truly need to be modernized on
 top of a user-status API before we go too deep. Then we need
 `bp_get_member_status( $user_id )` that returns a literal string based on
 that API.

 Do the bare minimum to prevent non-moderator level users from seeing
 inactive accounts, and let's look heavily into this for 2.3.
