ChromeOS support for multi chrome profile in the same user

I searched and couldn't find an issue to track this
Hopefully the team wants to implement this feature in the near future, even if only a part of the users actually use this.

Chrome on Windows/MacOS/Linux supports multi profile within the same OS logged user.
Those profiles can be logged to a Google account or remain disconnected.

On ChromeOS this concept doesn't exist.
users can create more chromebook users or one single guest, but that implies logout/login

Recent work seems to be showing the option to add more than one profile to an user, but it requires to be logged into a google account.

I'm a prolific user of Chrome Profiles (personal, work, facebook, AWS accounts, etc).
I own a couple of Chromebooks (waiting to buy the new Slate) but not being able to run multiple profiles at once, means that I have to remain on a macbook most of the time i browse/work.
Which makes me sad, cause I can do all other personal and work operations from the chromebook.

So I would like to request some feedback from the ChromeOS team to this functionality .
