It's not enough for tons of stuff besides multiple-color-spaces, which includes 
any operations doing blending of color-spaced objects but that's not the 
point. It's a question of benefits vs implementation complexity and they don't 
have a linear relationship. It'd be bonkers to do a full color space managment 
just because you wouldn't want someone who wants to do gaussian blur on an 
image with an embedded color space suffer loss of color quality on the blurred 
image. 
What's important for Qt is simply correctly displaying images, everything else 
and that includes any manipulation of those images, is a great extra but is 
non-essential.
