+! Profile Management with Login Integration<br>
+!
+Firefox already stores the users' details and usage in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Profiles profiles]. I want to give the user a management system for managing his/her profile. ight now the user has to go through a lengthy procedure to do so.The user can log-in to the browser using a form and then can chose some settings associated with the profile.In a lot of universities,organizations and other places, the system adminstrator and the user are different, and the admin wants to authenticate or give some special rights to the user.
+The form could be of multiple usage, a lot of organizations, universities, cyber-cafe, and even parents(who dont want unnecessary usage of sites by children) want to authenticate the user--(and user external clients, softwares like cyberoam to do so)--, so the form would be customizable to include all the necessary details for login.
+After Login, the user can do any pre-defined settings, he can have his own boomarks, own add-ons, own proxy settings, some saved passwords, sync options, security settings with his/her mobile and other settings which he/she chose.Also this can help universities/organizations to record users' activity specific to his profile.
+Already a lot of people([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?query_format=specific&order=relevance+desc&bug_status=__open__&product=&content=profile bug list]) are using profiles and these would give them a clean interface to do so.
