Comment (by ericlewis):

 In 1.0.3, the activity update referenced the Extended Profile group that
 the user edited, not the specific field that the user edited. e.g. 'Eric
 edited the "base" profile info on his profile'

 That seems a bit obtuse to introduce back into core here, rather than
 getting more granular in the update description. e.g. 'Eric edited the
 hometown on his profile.' (This is also 9 years of Facebook user
 experience talking)

 Also, currently the xprofile_profile_field_data_updated action is hit even
 if the value for this field hasn't changed. Wouldn't we want logic here to
 validate a change has actually been made?
