Multiple target profiles, and allowing sharing of links

(below I describe two different feature requests that should probably be reported as separate issues, but they are kind of complementary)

It would be nice to be able to set up sshbeam so that one could share links, and then sshbeam would execute a user-defined ssh command. The user would specify the ssh command with specific template variables that would get replaced with the shared URL or the shared page-name. For example, you could make sshbeam execute something like "ssh [email protected] firefox $URL" in order to make firefox on the server machine open a shared URL in an existing browser window.

More generally, it would be good to have the ability to set up "target profiles" in sshbeam, and then when you select sshbeam to share via, it should prompt you to just select one of possibly multiple target profiles. After you select the profile, then it does whatever you've set up that profile to do (e.g. copy a file, or issue a command on a specific server with a specific ssh key). So for the case I described above, I might create a target profile called "lauch with firefox on myserver.com", and then when I select that, sshbeam takes care of issuing the command I've set it up to issue.
