We can consider making this custom method of profiling the default method when we use --gecko-profile on a test that requests it.

This bug is to make note of

  1. would this be useful/preferred?
  2. and if so, implement it

additional info I forgot in comment 0. (from sparky)
we now have two methods of doing profiling for them: (1) from the extra profiler run at the end of a test run (assuming the flag was provided), and (2) by providing --gecko-profile to the test command.
This could potentially confuse developers.
