Firefox profiles have gotten a lot better, but one thing that still feels missing is taskbar separation between profiles.

In Chrome, when you open a different profile, it gets its own taskbar icon and application identity. This makes it very easy to switch between personal, work, school, or other profiles directly from the taskbar and instantly know which profile is open.

In Firefox, multiple profiles are separated internally, but their windows are still grouped under a single taskbar icon. Once several profile windows are open, it becomes difficult to quickly identify and switch to the profile I want.

It would be great if Firefox could provide an option for profiles to have their own taskbar icons and separate app identities, similar to Chrome's profile experience on Windows. Ideally, opening a profile from the profile manager would automatically create a distinct taskbar entry without requiring custom shortcuts or manual configuration.

For users who rely on multiple profiles every day, this would make a great addition
