For the simple shoot and forget interface for client color space
tagging, which Niels is thankfully working on, a CMS like littleCMS
might be well established, maintained, reviewed, audited and supported.

However as it is used in Weston, it has clipping and other not so good
side effects, but it is certainly valuable on its own for base color
correction. A different CMS can go beyond that and add more color
management features to the benefit of the while desktop not only some
esoteric clients, which support device links or other more powerful
expressions from their own GUIs.
