The problem with that is after he has migrated the mail and news, he

Also, as I understand it, if he reads mail, tags mail, flags mail in
profile #1, he wants it to be displayed in profile #2 already
downloaded, tagged, flagged, marked as read, etc.
I don't think that is even possible.
Why wouldn't it be? If both profiles are pointing to the same mail
folder, they should read the same content, including any tags. It would
only be a problem if both profiles were open at the same time, competing
to read/write the same files.
It looks like the tag names, colours, etc. are defined in prefs.js /
about:config for the profile (mailnews.tags.*). e.g. for one of the
default labels in my profile:
user_pref("mailnews.tags.$label3.color", "#009900");
user_pref("mailnews.tags.$label3.tag", "Personal");
When tagging an email, a reference to the internal tag name is added to
the headers in the mail file, e.g.:
X-Mozilla-Keys: $label3
If you've defined custom labels, and then reference the same mail file
from a different profile, that profile won't know what the extra labels are.
If your set of labels is fairly constant, I guess it should work to
define the same labels in both profiles and then both would know what
$label3 or whatever means. You'd probably need to do that by editing
prefs.js or about:config, to ensure the same label gets the same
internal name. Probably not practical if you're constantly defining new
labels though.
