Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-4] Channel clipping breaks author expectations, especially when using 'perceptually uniform' spaces (#9449)

It took me a few days of experimentation before realizing that my monitor/OS setup is alright but the browser themselves are clipping the colors in unexpected ways.

So here are some points I want to make:
* How we gamut-mapping colors should be independent to how they are declared. There is no real reason to do otherwise, since gamut-mapping always needs to happen somehow. (e.g., someone could be using a monitor with 90% sRGB coverage so sRGB is not "safe" either)
* I don't know what kind of clipping from Rec2020 to display is being talked about, but "channel clipping" is unacceptable, and it is the premise of this issue.

Apologize for jumping into a discussion without much qualification or constructive feedback, but I do want to make sure we are on the right track for this issue.
