What can/should profiles be used for? I know the following already:

Profiles provide a nice way to organize your backups. There are proven use cases, for example some users want to backup some folders in one location and some others in another location.

Is it intended to use multiple profiles for the same borg repository?
Will vorta do the scheduled backups for all profiles or only for the active one?
And what about multiple repositories for the same profile?

Sorry, must have overlooked this. I dont have the final answers. Borgmatic has multiple repos per profile. Maybe a starting point?

I didn't have a look at borgmatic yet, but I always wondered whether vorta could use it as a backend.
