agree. Only an example: the SGILOGLUV encoding in the TIFF spec is XYZ. I
simply like to handle these images as XYZ in floating point color space,
and see them through the correct monitor profile on screen.

CIE*Lab is handled like any other color space, beside the curious value
range of 0.0 -> 100.0 for L and -127.0 -> 127.0 for a and b.
