I just almost always start firefox with a mouse click- even on fluxbox :/

$ cd ~/.local/share/applications

$ cp /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop .

$ vim firefox.desktop

Add -P onto the end of the 'Exec' line. Now your click button for firefox will open the profile manager.

awesome!
If you dig around, there is probably a value in `about:config` that lets you tell firefox to always show the profile selector first. Otherwise, add `-P` to the argument fields in your desktop shortcut.
