By knowing that it works on buffers with ink density and not light 
intensity. So how would GIMP know that? There are many heuristics that 
could be used:

* Was the buffer created with Decompose?
* Is guiguru's CMYK projection/curtain down?
* Is there a CMYK color profile attached somehow?
* What babl format is used?
