[support] Multiple fields in a table rather than one per table?

You might try content_profile module.   It stores profiles as cck
elements, so it probably would work to get them all into one table.

One file per field has always been the way the profile module worked its
magic.  If you want something else you'll have to find another module or
write one yourself using the form hooks and your own DB table or perhaps
store the data in the user data column using the user hooks.
