It's better than duplicating all of your profile fields to add a URL for a detailed description of each field. Can you dig it?
Gotcha. The ultimate idea of my mods is to keep it simple for both the end user and admin. Being in IT I can see lots of people screwing up entering in BBCODE manually, and admins having to edit everyone's profiles manually. Considering I do that a lot on a daily basis for typos and the like w/ system specs on my forum, I wouldn't wish that on other forum staff

However, I'm now wondering if (and I'm pretty sure this would be possible) a small WYSIWYG button for just the link could be added to the EPGP page. Hrm... I think I know how to do it, I'll attempt to mess with it tomorrow. However considering today turned from an 8 hr to a 14 hr day, I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna want to do anything after work tomorrow

I've created a customization for this mod and sent it to you via PM, Wired1. It takes out the reliance on "automatic" and "manual" and instead displays all of the profile fields in a profile field category (specified through vboptions). It has the bbCode feature I was talking about too - so you can see how it works.
I remember looking at categories when they first came out, and there was a reason I didn't want to use them, can't remember ATM though. Something to do with duplication of fields on other tabs I think, although IIRC I had figured out a workaround for that. Something to look at tomorrow / Thurs.
