Peter, looks good. That is essentially what I wound up doing in experimenting with it. I have not tried creating my own personas as I'm artistically dysfunctional, in otherwards I am not very creative artistically. For now, when I want to change my persona I just first change my firefox/thunderbid personas. I'll copy the URL and then I go to LO 4.0 change it there and copy the <value> from the PersonaSettings line in registrymodifications.xcu as well as the jpg files in the .config/libreoffice/4/user/gallery/persona folder over to my system running Fedora 19/LO 4.1. Hopefully this bug gets fixed fairly soon as I really do like this feature as frivolous as it may be.:-)
