General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

I glanced through the EU cookie law thread to ascertain Invision's general approach to local regulations, but I'm wondering if the product management folks have one eye to this new data protection law, which goes into automatic effect in 2018. I haven't delved properly into the implications for our community, but a cursory reading suggests additional functionality may be required, such as data portability. 

I know some US sites went to the trouble of accommodating the cookie law, presumably to have a single code base to support, but this obviously seems a little bit more in-depth and so would appreciate Invision's thoughts.
