What about Geddy Lee? Nobody seems to have thought of him so far...

I thought of him, as I always do when I hear the phrase "bass guitar". He is, hands down, my favorite player. But the question wasn't "who is your favorite bassist?". I truly can't see him fitting in with the other band members listed very well. He is too much of a metal/hard rock-styled bassist, while Bruford, Moraz, Fripp are more jazzy or avant-garde. He would over-power the others IMO.

Ray Shulman would fill in fine and even add violin and acoustic guitar for depth

Going with the jazz feel, I would say Jaco Pastorius (yeah I know  hes dead, but its just an imaginary supergroup anyway) or Shulman. Jaco's fretless and Bruford's drums could sound quite nice together.

Sean Malone has got to be one the best young Baaist out there. His work in Cync show his quickness and how heavy he can play. His own stuff in Mordian Knot shows how well he can compose and become much more creative. Great jazz chops. His first album was so good that Bruford and Steve Hackett joined for his second and it was awsome. So we know he will play well with Bruford already and would fit in nice with the others.
