Much of what you have described was articulated in this [1] thread, including profile aggregation. I strongly encourage people to post their similar ideas so hopefully developers will be able to anticipate future requirements. With regards to applying multiple profiles (which I really like), some thought will have to go in to resolving conflicts. For instance, if we have two rules : On <location event> set profile foo; On <temporal event> set profile bar; The profile may be opposites, if they trigger at the same time, which should win out ?
