I guess I'm unusual then ... If you do use "-no-remote -P $Profile" to have instances with separate profiles, you have to start the "search provider profile" first. Or maybe Gonome search starts the default profile first anyways. There is no apparent way to control this. I mean, I would understand if the search uses the default profile, but just any running instance? Strong dislike over here. In any case, I think we should *not* sneak this in unannouced, but with a clear information about wht it does and how turn it off.
