There has been some work done to try and use color matching software to do color matching and proofing for color-blind people. This has been mostly done as accessibility research. I think prepress applications can be found as well.
This is not the original link I found, but it is pretty good: http://www.internettg.org/newsletter/mar99/accessibility_color_challenged.html
This is actually a fairly well researched topic, and I believe the Meyer article was the original source I red on this topic.
As for learning about how to apply color management, "Real World Color Management" by Fraser, Murphy, and Bunting is pretty good, with only a few probably-insignificant for pre-press mistakes.
