Mike,
At this stage in the evolution of the industry, I'd have to say that
the only rule of thumb for supplying RGB is, don't even think about
doing it unless you have an ironclad guarantee from the recipient
that they know how to handle it.
If the recipients know how to handle it, any profiled RGB space
should work just fine. If the recipients open supplied RGB in
Photoshop 4 and convert to CMYK on default settings (which is way
more common than one would hope) all RGB spaces are equally dangerous.

In todays reality more and more supplied images are being sent in to
prepress houses, either in rgb or cmyk and supposedly ready for print. We
all know this last remark is a little bit of a fallicy. If one were to
create a small, not too technical white paper as to how to properly submit
rgb images - what would one say? Photographers should supply rgb images
embedded with sRGB or Adobe98 or ColorMatch - what would be best? And as
far as designers are concerned, I suppose the same thing applies.
Designers, however probably create their work in their own color space.
Should they convert to something like sRGB and embed the image before
submitting the image? There should be simple rules of thumb for supplying
rgb images - what are they? TIA
