Yep, a combined profile would certainly be useful. There is still
value in having multiple profiles in that it allows independent
development (and deployment), microformats at different levels of
maturity can comfortably coexist.
I've been experimenting with trying to parse such profiles into
perl hashes to use for parsing microformats but have come accoss
some problems.
I don't see how special cases where something has to be extracted
in a different way are expressed in the profiles.
(eg for rel-tag it needs to split the url in the href attribute and
get the last part)
Profiles are not intended to work as parsing templates. They just
identify the type of data so parsers can figure out whether or not
it's something they know how to parse.
