Hedley, CMYK in Frame basically involves two quite different problems:
(1) Imported bitmapped objects doesn't maintain fidelity downstream (2) CMYK colors for vector-based art defined *inside* Frame gets totally wrecked downstream. As of (1): Your point about storing RGB image data is *extremely* good as long as you mean Color Managed RGB data *including* ICC profiles. If so, you can't use EPS reliably at all and *must* use PDF as storage format for such objects. As of (2): No comments at this time.
