IIUC canvas will not use linear sRGB space. Rather, it will use the extended-sRGB transfer function. This is much better for adoption and compatibility, and has less surprise.

With a linear-transfer-function space for canvas, adding WCG or HDR support requires a full application. With extended-sRGB-transfer-function space, WCG and HDR can be added with no side-effects.
