Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-4] Should lab() colors which are outside the sRGB gamut be rendered on capable displays? (#4646)

IMO document color space should be explicit, and out-of-gamut CIELAB colors should be brought into document gamut (e.g. by clamping chroma along a ray of constant hue/lightness) before display.

If someone wants to take advantage of a P3 display (or whatever) then that should be explicitly opted into by the document.

Then authors will be able to reliably target sRGB vs. P3 (etc.) displays, and an author who sets the document to sRGB mode will see the same output as an sRGB display, even if the display they are looking at has a wider gamut.

Otherwise it becomes very difficult for an author to simulate on their own wide-gamut display what typical viewers on an sRGB display will see.
