They have. I use a work profile and a personal profile all the time. There's also a guest profile. OK, profiles take whole windows rather than individual tabs, but I don't find that a problem.

The biggest problem is that although I can right click and open a link in another profile, there doesn't seem to be a good way to reopen the page I am already on. I have to copy the URL, select the other profile, press new tab, then paste. Sometimes it would be nice to easily add tabs to a block list so that if I try to open e.g. facebook in work mode, I get a "You can't do that, click here to open in personal mode" screen instead of a facebook login page.

I use the BlockSite extension for precisely this- preventing me from opening social media on my work profile
