 Or a better way to filter bp_moderate.

 There is no way to allow a user that is not a site admin to access a users
 profile to edit content passed through bp_moderate check.

 Example, have a site that has member type teacher who would want to edit a
 users profile avatar but the tab is blocked. You can ->nav-edit_nav and
 change user_has_access which displays the tab but when you click tab you
 get redirected.

 The only way to actually view the tab is to filter bp_current_user_can and
 that opens the user to anything available to that cap. Not ideal when you
 want to be specific on what they can access.

 a filter on $access = bp_core_can_edit_settings()

 or right before core nav items are built
