Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_14_0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/69.0.3497.100 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

On the nightly (64.0a1 (2018-09-29) (64-bit)), I tried to run multiple profiles simultaneously. I ran 
open /Applications/Firefox\ Nightly.app --args -p default
and after that
open /Applications/Firefox\ Nightly.app --args -p MyProfile -no-remote


Actual results:

No new instance running MyProfile appeared, but the instance running the default focused.


Expected results:

A new instance running MyProfile should have opened next to the running default profile.
