“profile” is a tempting choice, but it’s treacherous because we might be
blinded by the glow of the implementation of environments as volatile
profiles.  On the other hand: if we could also move some of the features
of the “package” sub-command under “profile” (e.g. those that relate to
the management of, well, profiles), that could be a winning move.

Tricky.
