Setting up two profiles to switch between in SpectraView (one calibrated for sRGB emulation, the other calibrated for full gamut) manages the excess saturation in Chrome (when set to the sRGB Emulation profile), but the hues of web colors (particularly blues, such as the Facebook blue) look distinctly different compared to Firefox with [gfx.color_management.enablev4=true] and [gfx.color_management.mode=1] in about:config. The Chrome blue is distinctly more greenish, though images are a closer-but-not-perfect match.
