On Firefox 3 preBeta5 I've founds 2 bugs:

"firefox.exe -profile" and "firefox.exe -P" command line arguments don't insert, on the new profile, default bookmarks and RSS.

To reproduce "-profile" command:
1. Unzip the last nightly on a specific folder;
2. Create into the new folder a new folder named profile1;
3. Create a new BAT file named run.bat or firefox.bat;
4. Insert on the new BAT file: "start firefox.exe -profile profile1" and run it;
5. Now, see that default bookmarks aren't present.

To reproduce "-P" command:
1. Unzip the last nightly on a specific folder;
2. Create into the new folder a new folder named profile1;
3. Create a new BAT file named run.bat or firefox.bat;
4. Insert on the new BAT file: "start firefox.exe -P TEST" and run it;
5. See the Profile Manager and create a new profile named TEST on the folder profile1;
6. Select the profile and run Minefield;
7. Now, see that default bookmarks aren't present.
