So your idea of a "profile" already exists in the guise of session  
variables. This isn't the problem. There are two major issues with the  
current user/session system. 1) We have no good way to enumerate valid  
users. 2) It isn't possible to pull session keys from anywhere other  
than the database. Both are relatively minor fixes, just need to get  
around to doing it.
