Suggestion: Option to prompt user to choose a profile when launching Chrome

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I use this extension to manage two people's logins to common sites like 
Facebook, YouTube, etc. but often forget to switch sessions when initially 
launching Chrome. This creates a problem when I visit somewhere and am not 
logged in or I create a new account, only to later find out I've started mixing 
logins between the two profiles.

I think a nice feature would to simply have the option of choosing a profile 
when the browser is initially launched.

Or (I don't know if this is even possible) somehow have a way to specify 
session by using different Chrome shortcuts.

There is such a feature built in chrome, check out this website for more 
informations:

If you still want this feature in SwapMyCookies, I can add it as an option. Let 
me know!

I was looking for a solution like that, thanks for the link. However, my 
concern (if I'm understanding how this works correctly) is that if I do this 
method then each profile will effectively behave as a different browser which 
means different extensions and bookmarks.

One of the reasons my wife and I share the same login and browser is to 
simplify sharing of bookmarks, etc. We merely want to keep logged in sessions 
easily separate, which is why your extension is so cool.

"my wife and I share the same login and..."

To clarify, I mean the same Windows login.
