Jeff,
They can be very useful, but also seem a bit buggy to me. I need to work
up some test examples and see if I can reproduce some issues I encountered
in my last project (with the text of fields disappearing when I switch
profiles). Of course when I try to do it, I can't get it to happen.
For simple things, like font sizes, they work great, however.
If you are moving things around in groups, you can get unexpected results,
unless you check "Don't save changes when switching profiles" in Preference
or set gRevProfileReadOnly to true. Just something to keep in mind.
