<div class="moz-cite-prefix">A slight variation on this (or maybe
just different wording), the pref could be a "remember profile per
channel" boolean. That way, any profile I pick in a channel will
be remembered for startup, rather than having a specific profile
for a channel.<br>
<br>
It would be really nice to see something like the profilist addon
as a feature in firefox. The combination of that with a channel
profile would be really nice.<br>
