There may well be interesting future use cases around profile
selection.  Or perhaps we will enter a lovely future in which there's
just one responsive profile to handle all comers.  I think that's
where MyUW is trying to get with its
forked-from-respondr-responsive-theme : even the amount of stickiness
complexity here is just a transitional feature to gently migrate folks
from Universality to Bucky.

At the least I'll take a shot at articulating how an adopter would
achieve what you describe by plugging in to the extension points this
solution exposes.

Kind regards,

Andrew
