FWIW, my usage profile is more like Charlie's. I go even further: I tend
to have different browser profiles for different tasks: my main browser
profile (that one for "looking around" in the Internets) has even Javascript
disabled. Some pages turn up unviewable, but then, that's a feature for
me: I deeply mistrust that model where I have an application in my computer
set up to execute random bits of code sucked up from somewhere in the 'net.

For tasks-specific things (mostly job related), I do set up separate
profiles.

Perhaps a bit less convenient, but not too bad.

Cheers
