how (and why) they get around Quartz's build-in color management escapes me.
It also calls into question the massive propaganda campaign Apple has
been using for a year regarding how everything in Mac OS X gets color
managed, when it appears that as a developer you still have to write your
application to use ColorSync API's. It's not like you get color
management for free. (Although if your application resources, like
toolbars, buttons, etc. as TIFFs or JPEGs have embedded profiles, the OS
will use those. Cocoa gets that for free, not sure if Carbon apps do.
Needless to say I've never once heard of ANYONE complaining about the OS
user interface, application buttons and sliders not matching from one
machine to another - but whatever...)
