OS/2 build 2003032612

To reproduce:
1. Create several profiles
2. Run Mozilla
3. Choose profile, say, ``profname1''
4. Click Tools->Switch Profile...
5. Choose profile ``profname2''
6. Click Bookmarks->File Bookmark...
7. Observe root name ``Bookmarks for profname1''
although bookmarks tree is profname2's one.

Expected result: File Bookmark root should be ''Bookmarks for
<current_profile_name>''

The same behaviour is observed not only in the "File Bookmark" root name but
also in the "Bookmark Manager" root name, when that window is opened.
Same procedure results in incorrect address book entries in Mail. The "Address Book" window shows the addresses for the current profile, but Mail autocompletes using addresses from the previously active profile. (Mozilla 1.7.12 on Win)
I don't see any signs of profile name in both File Bookmark and Bookmarks manager, is this still actual?

INVALID as we now do a restart to switch profiles. The old XPFE suite could switch profiles without restarting.
