Looks like most people agree salting is still required.
Flags: blocking0.9+
Priority: -- → P1
Target Milestone: --- → Firefox0.9
Would it make sense to add the salt only if the user didn't specify the directory manually? So ~/.firefox/default.6xf/, but ~/.firefox/myprofile/

Benjamin: Can you clarify? I think if an explicit profile path is given at the command line, then no salt should be added. Such a profile also shouldn't be added to registry (profiles.ini), right?
Fixed on the aviary1.0 branch. I will make sure to incorporate this code when landing semi-single-profile on the trunk.
