The current behavior seems very silly. Is it possible at all now to
open a new tab in an arbitrary profile from the command line?

It also contradicts the documentation:

       -a application-id
              Check for a running Iceweasel started with the specified
              application-id. When iceweasel is invoked for the first
              time with a particular application-id, a new Iceweasel
              application is started; subsequent invocations of
              iceweasel with the same application-id will cause the
              already-running Iceweasel to bring up a new window.

              The default is -a iceweasel.

[...]

       -P profile
              Start with profile. Implies -a iceweasel--profile, or -a
              default if profile is default.

       -ProfileManager
              Start with profile manager. Implies -a with a fresh
              unique application-id.

Please bring the behavior and documentation back in sync.
