I didn't know that (obviously ;)). It's nice, but I've got a hunch that such thing should be placed "lower" than DM. My ideal would be even something placed deeper than "display manager"/X.org. I'd love to e.g. make my X theme using HSV or Lab color tuples. Also, such thing could take color management and color model support entirely of off applications shoulders. > (Albeit I heard from users who deal with DTP that they actually like > advanced cms display filter: http://registry.gimp.org/node/24944) Hmmm… I'm not sure of the reason of having that.
