I like the idea of importing profiles, but I think this function can be
a part of 'Profile management' dlg (no need for manual moving cfg files)
- see attched screenshots

This is the way gcmd works now, so I don't it make any worse than
before. Tabs, of course, will reduce the need for starting new
instances.

Generally you are right, but intermediate saving cfg data won't solve
the problem - it'd be necessary read xml cfg data too before every
opening of advrename dlg. And believe me, that'd hurt the
performance :o(

Heck, google's got nearly all my instances ;o)
