Hi Matt,
An excellent start!
Couple initial comments...
/* ----- Personal information ----- */
Should you include prefix and suffix fields?
/* ----- Addresses ----- */
I may be guilty of causing confusion here yesterday...
I'm not sure there needs to be separate fields for
state/county/province or postal code/zip code (5 total), so much as
some non-hacker friendly way to change the label for these fields (2
total). Some input from a non North American user might be good here.
Who knows, maybe in some places it's important to have both state and
county? Maybe I'm just being to fussy, but it comes from many hours
spent digging through code of many scripts, changing all instances of
'State' to 'Province' ;)
/* ----- Other out-loud thinking ----- */
Initially I was thinking there should be an image field, or a privacy
setting switch, but the more I think about it, these sorts of things
fall into the same category as 'signature' and 'avatar' and should be
handled by the individual mod as you suggest. For instance, my
business/rolodex mod does not want to use the common file cabinet for
member images and offers specific privacy settings of demographic info.
Cool stuff Matt,
verdon

Please suggest any others you believe may be needed by more than one
module.
This is just the generic list. Modules will be able to add their own
fields. For example, Comments is going to add 'signature' and 'avatar'.
Both of these fields are specific to Comments and I believe would not
be
used by other modules.
I'll update you when I get it working.
