So you're saying that the linearity of the camera (once you take out
black point) is so good that it's reasonable to just computate a matrix,
rather than also having a linearity correction curve.  I looked at a
profile of my old notebook's LCD that was created with an Eye-One
spectrophotomer, and it was definitely non-linear.  But it does seems
that everyone assumes the cameras are linear.
