Re built-in LUTs: Wasn't Graeme of ArgyllCMS posting here a week ago that video nerds take this feature for granted 'cause lots of their tools are not color managed—not the way DTP folks think about it.
The only reason I brought this up is because of "traditional" discussions, here and elsewhere, about 8-bit calibrations which, as far as I can remember, was always a subject of contention -- can't remember exactly why? Other than "taking away" levels of colors, I guess. Whereas the part of a "monitor LUT" that interests me are those that reside in its memory (eeprom), nothing to do, in my mind, with the "3D LUTs" used in "video effects", for those who seek the "look" of Fujichrome or Extachrome films, etc. Now things maybe very different now, especially in the context of 10-bit frame buffers. But I may be wrong... Ever fascinating stuff. / Roger
