Thank you for clarification.
I've tried it and do not see any issues.

When you're on the System(Host) - Virtualization - Provisioning page with the 
available guest profiles, you may click on "Advanced Configuration", where you 
may override the "default" kickstart profile values. If overriden, they will be 
used only for current system if kickstarted. (The kickstart profile shall stay 
unchanged.)
Cannot it be your case expecting the kickstart profile to changed? It may be a 
bit confusing.

If you will discover a bug on these pages, I'll be happy yo fix it.
