 I believe this already happens.

 Our current behavior is to redirect you to the page you were previously
 visiting. This behavior seems much better in most cases: say you're
 viewing a group, realize it's private, and log in - you'll surely want to
 be redirected back to your own group.

 What is the argument for going to one's own profile instead?
