This works. Thank you. The magical invocation is:
Edit ~/.bashrc or /etc/bashrc and add:
# Force Mozilla (Firefox) to prompt for profiles
# and start as separate instances for each.
MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1; export MOZ_NO_REMOTE
# Then invoke via "firefox -SelectProfile %u"
Log out and restart the desktop to get the changes to take effect for the
panel and menus. Changes made to ~/.bashrc or /etc/bashrc are picked up
with each new terminal window opened and do not require a logout or source
command if you invoke Firefox from the command line instead.
Many thanks. Now I can lose myself in the madness of model-model, view,
controller xml.... wheeeee....
