Opinion: Using, internally, a reference unbounded color space (or two: one linear, one perceptual, with, possibly low precision shadows for speed), and converting in and out of it when an image is imported or exported is a sane choice. Deviations from the "standard internal color space(s)" should be motivated by the operation being performed, not by the color spaces of the initial and final results (which may or may not belong to the same ones in any case). There are, no doubt, situations in which alternate internal color spaces could give better results. But catering to these corner cases is likely to cause endless headaches for developers and bring no benefit whatsoever to 99.999% of users. _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address: gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-developer-list
