Hi Gerhard,

You are right. There is such difference. However,
this is a rather advanced feature and not used by
many app as far as I know. The usual functions,
that is, open profile, create transform and pply
transform, remains the same, so I tried to avoid
the pain of a major version bump just because
such small change.

Obviosly some apps were broken in the process.

Regards
Marti
