Wouldn't it be better to have a list of profiles to connect then? That
would make a nice addition to the API since ConnectProfile only
connect one profile at time, that way we could have auto-connect be a
list and in case it is empty we connect all otherwise we just connect
the profiles in that list, how about that?
