As we all know, on Firefox the user is given the ability to use the same profile(s) across multiple platform, typically on dual-boot systems.

However, this is not possible in regards to Scrapbee, because on both platforms the paths are given as absolute.

As exemplified on the Scrapbee settings page:

Bottom line, depending on which kind of path is set in Scrapbee, from the other platform the scraps are not reachable, when the same FF profile is being used (the user would have to create a copy of it, just so the scrapbee paths could be changed).

However, if the user had the option to use a path relative to the profile folder, and made sure the rdf folder was present within (or its symlink), the profile could be transferable between the two platforms without hiccups.
