Comment:

 @pavelevap Thanks for the ticket.

 I agree with @tw2113 that my plugin is not so important as to require
 major changes in BP. That said, the root problem here is not my plugin -
 it's the fact that BP hardcodes the user_id requirement in a way that's
 very difficult to circumvent. If a plugin or a site wants to allow
 anonymous activity items to be created, why shouldn't BP let it? We should
 centralize our `user_id` checks so that they occur higher in the stack, or
 make the requirement filterable, or something like that.
