Isn't the use of ICC Profiles in PDFs an integral part of the PDF

Yes. In fact, the new ISO 32000 makes the use of ICC profiles
mandatory for correct rendering by a "conforming viewer".
If I have an image with a BetaRGB profile embedded into the image
(this has a wide gamut and unless color managed will not be
displayed correctly) as part of a PDF how does poppler transform
that image to the monitor color space?
It uses the alternate colorspace - which I'll assume to be DeviceRGB
in this case.
I notice in GfxState that there is logic for deciding if an object
uses an ICC based color space (IE. virtual GfxColorSpaceMode
getMode() { return csICCBased; }). If there is no color management
support what is being done with this information?
Informational and also to know if it has to fall back to the alternate.
