I like that Firefox really separates profiles and sort of requires a relaunch, which in some ways is a security blanket of its own. Make a shortcut to "firefox -no-remote -profilemanager" or individual shortcuts to "firefox -new-instance -P {profilename}". Build your own launcher UI in your Desktop or your Start Menu or Dock. Use different icons and really separate "work" from "personal".

(I use a mix of profiles and containers myself and a mix of Firefox mainline and Firefox Dev Edition.)
