I posted a list of proposed additions/enhancements to the lcms.c plugin and
would like some feedback on what to start working on next (
http://ninedegreesbelow.com/temp/gimp-lcms-8.html). For instance,

*The code that displays information in the "Image Properties/Color Profile"
box needs to be rewritten, and I'd like to know what information people
would like to see in the box.

*V4 profiles allow internationalization, but I'm not sure how well it works
in practice, so right now it is hard-coded to en and US.

*LCMS2 provides for error checking, but the documentation is opaque. It
might help if I knew what kinds of errors users actually encounter in terms
of faulty ICC profiles, etc.

*I haven't yet added in code that handles Gimp's 16-bit floating point and
32-bit integer image types. Are these image types being used by anyone?

*At present, the lcms.c plug-in only handles RGB images. I would like to
add support for CMY(K), Gray-scale, LAB, and XYZ images. Are there any
other higher priority candidates? Is there any reason why Gimp shouldn't be
able to open LAB and XYZ images, at least to convert them to RGB and
perhaps to convert them back when exporting? Also, I have almost no
experience with CMYK and don't know how Gimp currently handles CMYK.

Kind regards,
Elle Stone
