For profiles, maybe you can ...
Allow a mode (some parameter switch?) where each profile must be
explicitly declared to be "included" or "not included" in the update.
Maybe a comma separated list with "!" for "not".
If the user doesn't list all the available profiles when running the
goal, then the error message will include a nice
copy-and-paste-friendly version of the command with all profiles
listed. The user can then feed back in the list, excluding individual
profiles if they need to.
