As usual, Bruce, you are the exception to the rule. I mean that in a
nice way. You are exceptional, in that you work in what would
accurately be described as a "color-friendly" environment. Many (read:
most) self proclaimed color professionals do not. Some can't afford to,
others simply need to multitask too much and aren't willing to keep a
room that dark all of the time, or even to modulate the light output
when necessary. Let's not even begin to discuss how many aren't in
neutral surrounds.
Everyone cares about color whether they articulate it or not. Apple is
just trying to strike a middle ground and uses reasonable defaults to
do that. The minute we swing too far in one direction, we get jabbed
from a different group. So we land in the middle, and put in enough
flexibility to allow users to customize their environment as they see
fit.
I'm not going to argue any longer about how to treat untagged data.
It's all subjective; we chose not to go the sRGB route for system-wide
handling of untagged RGB data. I've passed along the requirement for
Safari. We'll see if they agree.
