Comment #26 on issue 143 by [email protected]: Handle color profiles in tagged images
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=143

A related issue is how to handle untagged images. There are two obvious options:

1) Treat them as being in the sRGB color space
2) Treat them as being in the monitor's color profile

By default, Firefox 3.5 does (1). Safari does (2).

(1) Pro: conforms to web standard http://www.w3.org/Graphics/Color/sRGB
(1) Pro: allows users who care about color fidelity to save server disk space by
stripping color profiles when publishing images on the web
(2) Pro: colors in untagged images will match those in Flash, since Flash is color stupid

There is a lot of debate about which of these pros has a higher priority. The proper
solution is of course for Flash to become color smart.
