Good solution would be to provide dbus function and konsole command line
argument for getting profile name.

The problem with profiles is that they represent both session/startup options
(mostly first configuration page) and look/feel options.
* Startup options are applicable only for new sessions.
* Look/feel options are mostly shared between session. Users might want to
change those for specific session without restarting it (e.g. swiching to light
color scheme when going outside on sunny day). It is currently possible for
e.g. scrollback size, tab title format, font size.
There are also window settings, which doesn't make sense when opening a new tab
(initial window size, "size hint after window resize", etc) or in a kpart.
Another problem is lack of option sharing. When an user finds their new
favourite font, or finds out some interaction-related option suits them better,
in most cases they want to use them in all their profiles.
