Ooh, unload when refcount hits zero makes much more sense to me.

yeah I don't think auto remove belongs at this level, in fact I am not
even sure -f belongs here.  What I would like to get to for auto remove
is a flag on the profile that causes it to be unloaded when its no
longer in use.  This would avoid all the potential problems Seth brought
up.
