I have a virtual machine where I have the betas for 2.53.3 installed. I don't
make a lot of use of that setup (and not enough to do any serious bug testing
or reporting), although it's useful to see how progress is coming along.
I do follow the notes of the developer meetings, and would be interested in
taking a look at current status of the 2.57 version, as well.
Is there any problem with installing 2.57 to a separate directory, if I'm not
trying to share a profile between the two releases?

They are more or less profile compatible at the moment. If you use it only for
testing you can use the same profile. Just need to reinstall Lightning if you
used 2.57 and did go back. Actually 2.53.3 has even some later stuff in.
With extensions I would recommend separate profiles. Older ones can hang 2.57
at shutdown or produce funny results.
Basically only the browser works right in 2.57. Various problems with the
other components. Usually use it only when I encounter a web site broken in
2.53 to check, when I find some time for a few 2.57 fixes or test 2.53 to 2.57
ports.
