Portable Firefox, a special build for using Firefox from a portable device (e.g.
USB stick), is presented in http://johnhaller.com/jh/mozilla/portable_firefox/.
I hope the experience from this package can be used to provide a stand-alone
build from the official site. This could be marketed as a solution to people who
want full synchronization between their home and work browsers, and could even
generate revenue from selling pre-installed USB sticks or the like.

By the way, it would be great if it could contain several OS specific versions,
and all of them referenced the same profile.

We have no plans to invest in this - third parties have done a decently good job of addressing demand.
