Hi,

I can't help you, but I can say that we are currently in the process of
designing a color management and HDR extension for Wayland, and I'm
sure in the long term I would like to use per-plane color space
transformation features of KMS in Weston eventually.

IOW, one more userspace that is going to be taking advantage of such
features as long as they are not too driver-specific.


Thanks,
pq
