My suggestion would be to cross your fingers, and hope that Mozilla Bug
#124029 gets integrated into the mainline Mozilla soon.  Bug #124029 is
the enhancement bug for "Roaming Profiles", allowing you to create a
single remote profile, and access it from anywhere.

My understanding is that the work is essentially complete, it's just
still waiting on final testing, bug fixing, and merging.
