Almost nobody using GIMP understands color management, because there is virtually nobody using GIMP seriously, and probably nobody will because of this kind of design decisions. I'm one of the few guys around using GIMP professionally in the field of graphic design, and with each decision like this one, pointing to the wrong audience (not the audience defined in the "product vision") I'm becoming less and less convinced that it is a good idea to keep using it. The most pressing issues (like performance and quality) are constantly postponed. But hey, we have a new dark theme and new icons. This is ridiculous. And this is what is keeping serious users from being interested in the application. And if things keep going in this direction, GIMP will end up losing the handful of people actually using it seriously and caring about it. Instead of focusing on imagers devs seem to be focusing on eventual users who only use the tool once a month for scaling some photos and remove red eyes or making banners for online forums. If that's the audience you care about, please amend the product vision so people like me can move on, since there is no future for us with GIMP. Eventual users and clueless people can learn. It only takes education. Aiming low with features like this only makes us, the real audience, want to run in the opposite direction.
