An easy way to access multiple iPhoto5 libraries

I stumbled across this in the help file, but couldn't find a reference to it anywhere on OS X hints.

If you launch iPhoto 5 and hold the Option key, iPhoto will ask you which library you would like to open. iPhoto remembers this preference until the next time you change it by holding the option key on launch. How easy is that?

[robg adds: We've run multiple hints on setting the iPhoto library location; it looks like they finally made it much, much easier in iPhoto 5 ... and yes, it's in help, but I hadn't noticed it there, so I figured it was worth publishing this one. But if it turns out to be a dupe, I'm sure someone will comment about it!]
