Yes i also do think it's a bit overloaded - therefore i think a named group of deployments which belong together fits quite good :)

I'd think management tools would care though: can the tool add or remove content from this subprofile? Can the tool update existing content? Will the repository itself detect and allow content added or removed not via the management tool? Will the repository itself detect updates to existing content? This is all information that should be exposed.

I think also the term sub-profile seems to need some more definition.
Actually a sub-profile is just a profile - it is a notion which implies a relationship/dependency between two profiles.

What you actually can do with the profile then depends on the implementation itself.
