CPU mining with profit switching in AM dev 3.2.2)

Q: How do I set up CPU mining with profit switching in AM?

Problem 1:
I can see 'CpuMiner-Opt 3.4.6 (CPU)' under 'managed software'.
But it is NOT available/selectable in the profit profiles -> no CPU mining!
Does any else notice the same?

Because of this I created a 'user defined mining software' entry for a CPU miner (Configured as [full compatibility with 'CpuMiner-Opt 3.4.6 (CPU)]).
I also selected all supported algos as for 'CpuMiner-Opt 3.4.6 (CPU)'
So far so good. BUT:

Problem 2:
The custom miner config is missing the same functionality (Default command line argument, User defined command line argument) as for built-in miners. This will lead to P3 further down  Shocked

Problem 3:
The custom miner does not get any parameters passed to it. Result:
