Let's say that A has a wishlist and B and C is friends (that might have own wishlists). All of them are authenticated users.
Now B and C might want to have a discussion about a gift for A, without his knowledge. Maybe it is rather expensive so they want to split the cost. Or A hasn't specified exactly what he wants, so B and C would like to discuss about brand, model, color, size, etc.
So either if you could use the comments and exclude A from read/write permission on his wishlist. Or if you could think of another way of solving this.

This is an interesting idea. Altough I'm not certain how to pull it off without requiring something like the per-node permission module (node by role?). Even with that, I believe it works through additive authorization, not subtractive authorization. i.e. you can say "users with this role are allowed to see this module" but I do not believe it allows for "everybody EXCEPT this user/role can see this node".

This is a feature where I'm going to request that you submit a patch. There are enough pending feature requests on the wishlist module that I know I'm not going to be able to get to all of them promptly. With a 16 month old child I don't have nearly as much time to block out as I once did to work on projects like this.
