Details

Sometimes (e.g. bug 1530660) it can be useful to understand if a user's problem is from an ancient profile or from one which was recently reset/refreshed (perhaps unintentionally or by someone else?). We could show the user the approximate age of the profile and/or the relative time since the last refresh/reset in order to help diagnose issues.

I think we should think carefully about whether we should include this in the copied data, especially if we provide granular timestamps for these values instead of approximate relative times, since the timestamps could be used to identify a user. We already show the profile folder directory to the user but don't copy it so could use the same treatment.
