I agree that sRGB needs to be the assumed source for untagged files, but I
would also propose that a special case exception be made for sRGB, where it
would be possible to tag it as sRGB without including the actual sRGB profile...
that would remove the space issue without removing the needed information;
after all, the OS and applications can have access to an sRGB profile without
appending it to every web graphic.
