And in case anyone else cares, some of the reasons I want
to make my own profile manager ...
1.) You can't use Mozilla's profile manager while Moz is running.
Why should a sys admin have to interrupt his Mozilla session just
to create a profile for a new user ?
This is possible in recent nightlies - Tools -> Switch Profile -> Manage
Profiles
2.) You can't use Mozilla's profile manager to make profiles
without "salting" - which is a pain in the ass when you
trying to support Mozilla on a LAN.
Just create an empty prefs.js in for folder first. Voil�!
3.) Backup tools are needed - any novice user should be able to
easily backup his mail or his entire profile.
Perhaps you could add this in to the existing profile manager?
