I stand corrected, you're absolutely right. Preview does handle files with

I know this was all on a Mac, but coincidentally... a prompting from a
message on a another forum today caused me to discover that the Windows
Preview (right click on a jpg, for example, then select Preview; opens
"Windows Picture and Fax Viewer") is also color managed. Images with
embedded profiles are displayed correctly. Untagged images behave strangely,
however -- they are not simply dumped to the screen as in Windows Internet
Explorer, but they also did not seem to simply be assumed to be in the
monitor's profile space or any other that I could find so far. Ex: an
untagged AdobeRGB image appeared almost as if it had been loaded into PS as
AdobeRGB, converted to sRGB, and then assigned back to AdobeRGB. In PS, I
walked through previewing the assignment of each profile listed and none
matched the Picture Viewer display for that untagged image.
