New Profiles System (about:profilemanager): Queries on links from other applications and Firefox Shortcut

Good Afternoon,

I am enjoying the easier profile management with the new profile system, and I am using it currently for splitting personal / work usage. I was just wondering if it is possible to set 'Choose a profile when Firefox opens' to always apply when running a Firefox shortcut, not just when Firefox is not currently running (similar to Chrome's 'New Window' option)?

Thanks, Robert
