Digital BW, The Print

I have used Tyler Boley's write-up of 'matching your monitor's view to 
your print' for some time now with good success. Thank you Tyler.  I am 
starting to experiment with different papers and, unless I have 
misunderstood something, this requires re-editing the image a little 
for each paper.  I have created a number of 'profiles', one for each 
paper I use.  I select the EAM profile and use that until I am fairly 
happy with the image.  Then, if I want to use another paper, I select 
that 'profile' within the soft proof set-up.  Of course the image on 
screen changes to what it will look like on the new paper and I have to 
edit the image again to make it look like I want it to on the new paper.

Would it be  equivalent, in terms of matching the print on different 
papers to the screen, to edit the image is some default space like 
gamma 2.2 and then use the 'convert to profile' function in PS to 
convert the image to these same  paper specific profiles just before 
printing.  That way I would only have to edit the image once.  As long 
as the profiles I create are good, I can print the image on any paper I 
use without re-editing?

This may be obvious to many, but I find the whole color 
management/calibration thing a little baffling.  There seems to be an 
endless number of ways to get it wrong.
