I haven't gone that far because I spend more time on the Windows side.
Next step on that path would be having the Mozilla profiles set up so the same one would be used from either OS. (Ubuntu can see the Windows file system via ntfs3g. I have an open source driver that lets Windows see the ext4 partition Ubuntu lives on. But the path of least resistance would be accessing the Windows files from Linux.)

I was confused about boot and shutdown scripts though; most people who run Windows don't know Windows can do that, and not even every Windows version is able to do it. Linux can run boot and shutdown scripts very easily (at least, in InitV it can).

The Windows Pro versions support Group Policy Editor. Home versions do not. It was a reason I was pleased the current desktop came with Win7 Pro.

I'm still wondering why someone would go through the aggravation of setting up a RAM-disk for the Firefox profile...

It wasn't aggravation. I'd been through the exercise before on a different box, and it's not hard to do.
Aggravation is what occurs when the content of the ramdisk gets trashed and the source it was loaded from isn't fully current.
