LP admins can turn a restricted membership team into a private team. I'm not sure why we don't allow team owners to do it. We can still have strong social pressure to keep teams public, so I'm not worried about a rash of private team creation.
This ties into several themes we've been exploring lately including team/project affiliation and team roles. I can imagine allowing a project to have one private team affiliated with it, or for its security contact team to be made private, but limit the choice of private team otherwise.
I'm still -1 on allowing public teams with private mailing lists. If the team is public then the privacy of the mailing list is easily subverted. You just join your bot to the team and forward all messages to the mail-archive.
