Yeah, separate preferences files is what I'm doing now, although I
hadn't stumbled on the PROFILES variable.  However, I'm not entirely
happy with it as a long term solution.  The worst part is what happens
to preferences that are set automatically, e.g. from "set options" in
Messages.

Would people find it repellent to extend the current "C=" and "M="
syntax to include a "D=" for display-dependent preferences?
