Feature to create new Profiles?

I rely heavily on Profiles in my editing workflow - ones provided by Fuji, Adobe, and profiles I've purchased from third parties. I'd really love to be able to create new profiles from my own edit settings, but don't see a way.  I've found a hacky technique (below) that works, but I'd  love to have a feature to create my own profiles from current settings with a click.

 

The technique I'm using:

 

1) Export a preset as an .xmp file
2) Open in a text editor like Notepad or VSCode
3) Find and change these two lines:

 

crs:PresetType="Normal" to crs:PresetType="Look"
crs:SupportsAmount="False" to crs:SupportsAmount="True"

 

4) Save, then in LR go to Profiles and Import the updated file.
5) The new Profile will show up in the User Profiles section.
