Lion profiles in Casper: a couple of newbie questions

Hello everyone,
I am testing Lion Configuration Profiles with Casper and would like to ask you:
- is there a way/key local admin users can temporarily override (bypass) profiles enforced at computer level (as in Workgroup Manager) ?
- I tried deleting the profiles (including the main MDM) from a test client and now I can't find a way to enroll it anymore. The client is still present within Profiles "scope".
Aren't profiles supposed to be permanently loaded if assigned?
Many thanks for your help
Ciao
Carlo

Here's how I get around the profiles on a machine temporarily.

In a profile that is delivered, I check the box under General->Login Window->Options for Computer administrators may refresh or disable management.

Then, when I login as a local administrator, I hold down the option key and a window pops up asking me what I want to do with the managed preferences.
