There's no fundamental reason it can't work - the field is optional. It 
can be either left empty or filled in with some combination of all 
inputs/outputs.

The current behaviour is to leave it empty, unless the profile is 
unidirectional, in which case one direction will be filled in and the 
other one left empty. (Multiple inputs or outputs are always defined as 
profiles, never through mappings with "auto-profiles=yes".)
