Well, as I haven't contributed code I'll step out after this comment, but I
don't think that merging something that breaks common work flows, seriously
degrades performance, and causes segmentation faults belongs in master.

I agree color management is important but it's not worth derailing other
developers just because it's on some list. Breaking master is a good way to
drive away new developers, and there's nothing wrong with working on
branches until some feature "basically works" and just needs integration
touch-up and fine-tuning.

Perhaps some people think this has reached that point, but it does not seem
that the person working on it thinks so, and I would put a lot more value
on her opinion and ability to request it be merged.

Chris
