I’m developing a theme and would like a help / opinion.

I’m planning to allow users to choose through a menu page the buddypress page template (left sidebar, no sidebar, two sidebar or right sidebar). This is easy in wordpress, because you just use the templates page, but buddypress doesn´t use this function.

Does anyone know how I can do this without profoundly alter the page templates of buddypress?

I figured a way through variables ($), but it would change both the sidebar.php on all the index.php buddypress and probably problems may arise with the use of plugins using this method.
