Toolbars, icons, menus, color selectors, [...] I was just going to say here that putting it in GTK could also 'fix' the color selector issues; let me just emphasize that point here. On a more philosophical note, how does one represent a color that does not exist on a display but does on an output device? Do we make the assumption that the display always has the widest gamut? (I.e: GIMP will never run on a mono/CGA device and print to a CMYK printer.) Is that a concern?
