Hi, I'm not sure if this is a bug, or me not using FF properly.

I want Firefox in general to ask me, which profile to use when started. So in the Profile-Manager, I removed the checkbox for "Use selected profile without asking as startup".

Now, I wanted to create a shortcut for a specific profile, so I tried running `firefox -P "myProfile"` or even `firefox -p "/path/to/myProfile"`. In both cases I get the window asking me which profile to use.

Specifying an existing profile should always work, regardless of "Use selected profile without asking as startup" as this is about a profile marked as "Default=1".

Does a profile named "myProfile" appear in the Profile Manager and in profiles.ini?

Note that is is about the profile as named in profiles.ini and not about the name of the folder on the hard drive.

After some more trying out, I figured that I outsmarted myself. I had put a `/usr/bin/firefox -p` in my path, so this one is always found first. I had forgotten that.

Sorry.

If anyone is suspecting this in the future, run `which firefox` and then `head [path from prev. command]` and see if that is a binary or a path.
