Nothing against Steve or Adrain, but it seems that we have *never* made a problem-free "1 to 2" transition.  The prudent approach is to add the new, make it the default, and then remove the old in the next release (i.e. 2.8).

-1 to deleting profile1 from the 2.7 build.

If current tools CAN work with profile2 without code changes than I can conceive of no argument whatsoever for keeping the old tool. Profile2 is light years ahead of the old tool in UI and levels the playing field with competing platforms regarding profile management.
