I hadn't realized that the 'profile' was tab-specific (sort of). Then it starts
to make sense. However, I think the real issue is that you have tab-specific
profiles, which also contain window-wide settings. Some ideas to improve the
situation:

a) Split profiles into window-wide profiles and tab-wide profiles. Sounds like
lots of work and potentially confusing.
b) Add a checkbox 'Apply to whole window' - the profile would then apply to the
existing tabs and honour 'Show/hide menubar' and 'Show/hide tabbar' upon
switching.
c) Add a warning upon saving, explaining that you need to start the application
with --profile <profile> in order to have window-wide settings applied

In addition (I can make a separate bug for it), it'd be nice to have in the
menu View -> Show tab bar (the way we already have 'Show menu bar').

Thoughts?
