CMFDefault.MembershipTool.getRoster is protected by the permission,
'List portal members.'  If you want to expose the roster to anonymous
users, simply map that permission only the Anonymous role.

If your MemberDataTool has a property, "selected_for_listing" (or
whatever), then you can implement a custom MembershipTool, overriding
the 'getRoster' implementation to filter on that property (instead
of on 'isManager or member.listed').
