I see a lot of complaints regarding the n900 having only 2 profiles. An idea occurred to me: there's a profile API. It doesn't allow creating a new one, but it does seem to allow editing of the existing ones. So what's to stop an app from editing the standard profile (assuming it's changeable, which i hope) anyway we like it? The app could have several 'virtual' profiles stored, and when requested, edit "standard" to fit our choice
I would test the idea myself, but not only do i not have a device, but also i can't seem to get scratchbox working. Sorry, i'll try to put something together later on. For now i'd like opinions on whether that's feasible
