Comment (by boonebgorges):

 > A possible enhancement for the future would probably be to include some
 filterable capabilities when registering the member_types taxonomy.

 Yes, that's not a bad idea.

 I agree with what DJPaul has said here. Let's try to do something like
 this for 2.3. In the meantime, here's some sample code that you can adapt
 to hide the metabox from certain users. In this case, I'm allowing only
 'bp_moderate' users (ie, admins) to view it, but you can do whatever you'd
 like.

 {{{
 function bp6145_remove_member_type_metabox() {
         if ( current_user_can( 'bp_moderate' ) ) {
                 return;
         }

         remove_meta_box( 'bp_members_admin_member_type',
 get_current_screen()->id, 'side' );
 }
 add_action( 'bp_members_admin_user_metaboxes',
 'bp6145_remove_member_type_metabox' );
 }}}
