Separate bookmark sync per Firefox profile: is it possible or a feature request?

Hi everyone, I’m using multiple Firefox profiles to separate my work environments (e.g., “Work”, “University”, “Personal”), all linked to the same Firefox account.

What I would like to do is:

Use the same Firefox account across multiple profiles to keep extensions, passwords, etc., synchronized.

Sync bookmarks only within the same profile, so that bookmarks from the “Work” profile do not appear in the “University” profile and vice versa.

Continue to be able to edit bookmarks from different devices (home or office) while keeping them synced only within the same profile.

I’ve looked into Firefox settings and sync options, but it seems Firefox syncs everything across all profiles connected to the same account.

My questions:

Is there a native way or any setting to have bookmarks synced separately per profile while using the same account?

If this is not possible at the moment, could this be considered as a potential feature for the future?

Thanks for any suggestions or guidance!
