 Hi everyone,

 I've been using Wordpress more and more as a general framework and I am
 using it to create more of a social site than a blog. It occured to me
 that it would be nice to have custom visibilities. For example, If there
 are multiple users, and each has friends, and wants to create a post that
 he/she only wants to show friends, the post could have a custom visibility
 type called "shared" or something.

 This is something which can be done easily with a custom post status as
 well as custom fields, but to me it would make sense logically to make it
 a custom post visibility. Looking into the code it seems to me that this
 is nowhere near easily implementable at the moment, just throwing it in as
 an idea.
