Can I specify Profile folder as startup option?

The problem seems to be, ...
how to tell an application, ...
which, when invoked, must rely on proper configuration data, ...
... which have been built while the first setup process, ...
when this application is in the startup phase, and it needs dedicated configuration data.

There are two threads, that might be of interest ...
/t/15191/1
/t/16092/1
... and there may be some other threads too.
