Lars,
We have been down this road, and I have made precise and constructive
suggestions a bunch of times.
As regards core OS routines, my suggestion to improve color management
in user apps has been that we design an OS method such that one can
see immediately which transforms (profiles, intents) have been
cumulatively applied to an image, or propagated through a file. A
programmer will never notice from a *look* at his screen which
transforms are being called.
You can of course say that this is now *impossible* and it may well
be, but then why stick to a design which just cannot be implemented
and verified except by the most specialized of specialists?
We have run through years of bug after bug in the profiled inkjet
printing field in Mac OS, please don't tell me this isn't true because
everyone here even including Andrew Rodney has noticed it, with
profiled printing becoming essentially irreproducible for a period,
exactly because no diagnostic facilities were ever embedded in the OS,
because none were ever envisaged at design time by the ICC, in the
interest of no vendor ever ever ever being *provably* designated as
responsible for a color management failure.
