Comment (by sbrajesh):

 Hi @imath
 Thank you :)
 I agree that plugin authors haven't been(I am guilty too) doing much.
 Still, BuddyPress is the upstream and does not need to worry about
 downstream plugins. the onus should be on plugin authors to make sure the
 follow the updates of BuddyPress.

 I like the approach by @dcavins. It allows to disable the privacy
 partially(exclude some section/pages) or disable it completely(@shawfactor
 has requested it). It can be updated to use the capability suggestion by
 jjj(your implementation in the last patch).

 In other words, we can mix your addition of the 'bp_read' capability and
 use it on the hook 'bp_private_site_user_has_access' in @dcavins patch.

 That will be very flexible at the same time will work for most of the
 setup without any issue. What do you think?
