--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Can already reach via Help -> Restart in SafeMode, 'Show user profile' on the
Advanced tab--which is a more complete means to manipulate profiles.

And, this certainly does not belong on a menu or toolbar entry by default.

That said, for 'Eve' expert users--an UNO command to expose the
GetUserProfileURL() from BackUpFileHelper and make it available for
customization assignment to toolbar or menu button action could be
useful/convenient (i.e. not having to run through the SafeMode restart dialog).

Another option might be to display the User Profile stanza to the Tools ->
Options -> Paths panel as default. With no internal action allowing path to
open with os/DE default file handler for directory.

@Samuel, what do you think?
