So this is what I ended up doing in
https://github.com/hughsie/colord/commit/c0f7ed73692fa6b522e52eeac6d7431e620871d2
-- different users may want to "rename" the system profiles to
something more or less technical depending on their expertise level.
There was also an issue of atomically modifying the users profile from
the system user, when all we had was a readonly file descriptor. This
way allows users to "rename" the profile.

Thanks for all the advice,

Richard.
