Default profiles are causing data loss on crash

Status in Mudlet the MUD client: Invalid

Bug description:
This happened to Malaphus and to another person now. Mudlet deals very poorly with profiles that have the same name as default ones and when it crashes, it causes *complete* - data even gone from disk, forget snapshots - data loss:

When I restarted Mudlet last the profile was name Achae instead of Achaea. 
 I looked in the .config folder (just looked, didn't touch) - was nothing there but a
file entitled description.  I have another profile from another game, and there
should be more.  Pretty sure it's all gone.

The profile name cutoff problem was already described to great lengths in IRC and its reproduction steps.
