No, to me, I'm still only looking at untagged RGB data in Safari.
Not dismissing Roger's (Hayward) argument, I still feel that one
overall
"reference" RGB profile can be selected in Safari for display. I
understand
not everyone has a G5 on its desk (much to Steve Jobs's sadness and
mine
too) but that choice better be left in the hands of the user: let then
decides what's best for them. At least, Microsft has the merit of
allowing
the user to activate or not ColorSync.
My concern is not primarily performance; it's breaking the continuity
of Web designs. That reflects poorly on the platform as a whole, where
we already deal with the idea that Mac's don't display Web sites and
other stuff right. I'm not arguing against sRGB (or some
user-determined space) being used; I'm arguing FOR it, but only if
*all* elements that creep into a browser can be managed the same way.
This means color managing everything that hits the monitor; which,
again, I'm all for. But I'm against a halfway approach.
If Tiger can apply the same color policy to all untagged elements that
hit the screen then I'm 100% all for this, performance be damned.
