On building a privacy policy

The new software, as you'll have noticed, does a pretty good job of not needing to show email addresses to anyone, almost ever.

I'm thinking, though, that at some point the moderator needs to be able to see them (certainly I, as site moderator, have gone to look them up, though I expect that sort of thing to continue to be handled at a "tech support" sort of level rather than at a group-moderator sort of level), especially when it comes to approving new members and so forth.

What think ye? Do you think it's enough of a selling point to just keep them from the general public and not group mods (especially considering that the software may be used in less laid-back communities than the Phoenyx someday)?

And then: group membership lists. Now that they're not a list of email addresses, would it be okay to have the general public able to look at a group and see who all is in it, and to look at a member and see what groups he's in?
