Summary: Allow user settings to be imported/exported in a Main profile while maintaining global settings in an Enterprise profile.
Description: During a recent upgrade, a user asked if there was a way to preserve their display color settings. This got me to thinking about the profile in terms of "corporate" and "personal". Similar to the CUI, it would great to have the profile split into two parts, the Main and Enterprise.
The Enterprise profile would contain the default settings for the application, common to all users. The Main profile would contain only a subset of the settings (chosen by the CAD Manager, see below). If used, the user's Main profile would overwrite any of the settings made by the Enterprise.
A new "profile editor" might be useful. In this editor (which could open ARG files directly) the CAD Manager to control the default configuration and, for each option (or tab), indicate whether it was customizable or not. If so, this setting could be exported to a user's Main profile and would overwrite the Enterprise profile's settings.
