Global profile requires to many steps on "M" Radio

My absolute favorite thing about the Flex is global profiles. I use it as a band select most of the time as it sets up my panafalls with correct slices, frequency, DAX, etc, etc, etc. I have never liked that it was an actual menu item but at least it only took two clicks and self closed after selecting the profile I wanted.
I was disappointed in the new 6600m as the process takes to many steps. Basically select menu > Profiles>pick profile>Load> Exit.
To make it worse it cannot be assigned to a function key like memories can.
It would be fantastic to have an easier way to access global profiles. Push one button/menu item and select the global and have it self close. I would personally prefer a dedicated window for profiles and not a shortcut that takes you into the menu.
Am I missing a shortcut?
Speaking of Function keys there is a small bug in assigning function keys. It does not hurt anything as far as I can tell. You can select SEND CW and then change it to Open Memory and the Send CW window does not go away.
