In my case:
-  I have two wired nics... 
-  both connect to different routers with a /24 netmask (255.255.255.0)
-  each router has it's own ISP... 

I need a simple way to switch from one ISP to another, in the past
(9.04) I used to set two "profiles" per NIC, one with and without
gateway, and switched between the two... first enabling both NICs
without gateway, and afterwards enabling the desired gateway in the
appropriate "profile" of the correspondent NIC...

Maybe there's a simpler way to do such a thing... routing through both
interfaces at once is not required nor desired... I use one or the other
to troubleshoot different ISPs against my servers...

I'm in need of some guidance, because I've just added a third ISP and
the list of ISPs is only going to grow up... after this I'm going to
make one router with some spare machine and make that box manage the
routing...

One last thing... before installing a fresh karmic, I've upgraded my
jaunty to karmic through update-manager -d and my setup remained as
configured in jaunty... maybe there's a new option that I'm not aware
of... trying the #2 hint by Matt Trudel didn't worked for me... still
can't configure a gateway-less "profile"...
