This, in my understanding, is one of the goals of the 
resource/publishing split. I hope one day that we can bind (for example) 
each workspace to a different WFS service URL in the same GeoServer 
instance, rather than just have workspace = namespace as we have now. To 
meet the WFS spec, qnames would have to be unique within each WFS, but 
not necessarily within the GeoServer instance. Workspaces could be used 
to deliver the same feature type name, encoded according to different 
profiles, or backed by different data.

Perhaps profile should not be a container (like workspace), but a 
property set on each feature type?
