I wholeheartedly agree. It is an absurdity that some print drivers ship with separate .icc profiles.
I am not quite sure why the situation evolved, but I suspect that professional users started to wish to have a way to calibrate their output for their specific printer (even now, people who care about color matching have their specific printer profiled). As it was difficult to modify the printer driver to accept the .icc profile, the developers of sophisticated applications such as Photoshop started to include support for such profiles. So, it is a good point that in the gimp architecture, perhaps gimp-print or gutenprint is the most logical place where to support printer profiles.
