In GIMP git master, you would say gimp_preview_area_set_color_config (gimp_preview_get_area (preview), gimp_get_color_configuration ()); > > I wouldn't bother to do anything with plug-in color management. > > I don’t understand what you mean… in the G’MIC plug-in, the preview > area is used to judge the visual output of a given filter, and to > tweak parameters accordingly. > However, if the monitor profile is not taken into account by the > plug-in, in many cases the g’mic preview will not match what the user > sees on screen once the plug-in is closed… this makes any serious > usage of the g’mic plug-in at least questionable. > > So personally I bother a lot improving the g’mic plug-in in this > direction, and I’m ready to spend some spare time on that.

I wouldn't bother do add color management to a GIMP 2.8 plug-in and I have never tried.
