I had to modify the schema and a bit of code to do this. I added a field to mw_cur: s_mem_type enum, with a default value of "non-member". I don't have web access to this field -- a DBA has to change it to some other state.
I then added a method to User is_member that checks this field. I haven't really put it to use yet, but the intent was to provide access restrictions on personal information; I want full contact info on each User page for other members, but have it hidden for non-members.
Perhaps that's a starting point for you. As near as I could determine, there is no such facility built-in.
