It makes more sense to handle this by making isolated profiles more usable.

It will need to use the lenient mode providing fake data even for API level >= 23, so some infrastructure changes to accommodate that will be needed. It will also need to be added as a requested permission to all existing apps. This could be changed at a future API level if it was upstreamed, but that doesn't seem particularly likely. There are some obvious APIs that need to be covered, but there will need to be some auditing to find other ways this information can leak.
