I&#39;m using rack mini profiler in rails just fine, but during some coding sessions especially where I&#39;m working on a lot of different client side code, it gets in the way. (mainly in my client side debugging tools network graphs, etc.)

I&#39;m trying to turn it off with a before filter, that also serves to see if the user is authorized to see the profile anyway, but &quot;deauthorize&quot; doesn&#39;t seem to do anything for me.  Here&#39;s my code called as a before filter:

    def miniprofiler  
     off = true
     if off || !current_user
      Rack::MiniProfiler.deauthorize_request
      return
     elsif current_user.role_symbols.include?(:view_page_profiles)    
      Rack::MiniProfiler.authorize_request
      return
     end
     Rack::MiniProfiler.deauthorize_request
    end

I also know there is a setting &quot;Rack::MiniProfiler.config.authorization_mode&quot; but I can&#39;t find docs on what the possible settings are, and not seeing it used in the code?  Right now its telling me :allow_all, but :allow_none doesn&#39;t do anything either.

Even if I can just temporarily set a value in the dev environment file and restart the server, that would serve my purposes.
