Paalanen: Developing Wayland Color Management and High Dynamic Range

The thing is, in my humble opinion, that out of the few professional users that really, REALLY need to match colors on the screen with colors on other media (paper, photo, movies) it really is not that important. After all, the human visual system has evolved to be excel at ignoring slightly off colors and bad lighting.

Except... when you have multiple displays. In this case, the changes in color and brightness when you move a window from one display to the next can drive you nutts...

I hope that this new Wayland capabilities make fixing this easy for desktop environments.
