Using multiple profiles simultaneously in Firefox Quantum Beta
I've just switched to using FF Quantum Beta from being a long time Chrome user. I used to use Firefox many years ago, and have used in on and off, but the speed and poor quality dev tools kept me using Chrome. It seems Mozilla has finally addressed these issues, and I love what they've done! FF Quantum is now a Chrome-beater in my book.
However, it seems profile management is still severely lagging behind Chrome, and whereas Chrome makes it really easy to have multiple profiles running simultaneously (e.g. work and home), FF does not. I know I can create a separate profile, but running it alongside my regular profile is not possible unless I duplicate the FF binary and create separate launchers (I'm on MacOS). It seems to me that this should be far easier, and something that is not beyond the reach of an average browser user.
Will this be addressed in future releases?
This is a minor gripe with an otherwise excellent browser.

On Mac this may not be as easy to do like on other platforms where you can easily create a shortcut.
You can possibly use a bash script or other script that allows to launch Firefox with some command line switches.
You can add -no-remote to the command line to open another Firefox instance with its own profile and run multiple Firefox instances simultaneously.
