 Hi,

 since the introduction of the new Rewrite API, i haven't found a good way
 to make BP Profiles compatible with language subdirectories (e.g
 "mydomain.com/en/john-doe").

 With the legacy parser, it was possible to hook in at certain points and
 make the whole thing work, but now there doesn't seem to be a way to do
 this anymore. From what i understand right now, a filter in
 BP_Members_Component->parse_query() would be required, just before
 "bp_rewrites_get_member_data()" gets called:

 == Before:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 // Init the current member and member type.
 $member      = false;
 $member_type = false;
 $member_data = bp_rewrites_get_member_data();
 }}}



 == After:

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 $request = apply_filters('bp_members_parse_query_request',
 $GLOBALS['wp']->request);

 // Init the current member and member type.
 $member      = false;
 $member_type = false;
 $member_data = bp_rewrites_get_member_data($request);
 }}}


 This would allow for the requested URI to be filtered, right before it
 get's passed to "bp_rewrites_get_member_data" and manipulate it such that
 this function knows where to look for the username in the string.
