[ale] Separate instance of google chrome

[DJ-Pfulio]

su -
to pick up the other environment. Plain su doesn't do that.
But there will be X/Windows issues, so xhost + localhost will be necessary.

I've seen articles about running browsers under a limited account with
SElinux/apparmor preventing "bad things". Never got around to trying
that myself. Pretty easy to spin up a  tinycore  VM.
