Ok, I've read all your contribution to the thread. Let us start with
something simple.

You're writing, that there's this script that checks which browser is
to run actually. Nice thing, but note that I wrote "one runs two
instances of firefox with different profiles".
How exactly this script should help the user to distinguish one firefox
from another firefox?

And note, it is 20 users who are unable to overwrite each other's
files. Or read each other's files. KISS principle is no substitute for
a basic security.

Fail to see how exactly it complicates things if user and admin is the
same person.
