--- Comment #12 from V Stuart Foote <vsfoote at libreoffice.org> ---
Obviously working at the os/DE user profile level directly as OP suggested
(Windows instance) is not feasible. 

But we have the functional Zip based profile backup/restore implemented for the
SafeModeDialog at the 5.3 build [1].

Giving users direct access to that backup/restore from Tools -> Options would
deliver the requested feature(s), and give users the ability to migrate their
profiles between installations.

@Samuel, any reason the Backup and Restore from SafeModeUI couldn't be reused
against a profile saved outside the SafeMode dialog?
