It would help, yes.

Yes, just those two options is too limited. > Ideally blending in some perceptually uniform space would be an option > since it likely reflects author intent. Since we are adding Lab as a colorspace, then adding it as a value to color-interpolation makes a lot of sense too. Perceptually linear, no gamut clipping. > Similarly gradients could benefit from deeper colors even on 8bit > displays simply by dithering the output to 8bit. Yes (as is done currently with 8bit colors, dithered to 6bits on TN displays). -- Best regards, Chris Lilley Technical Director, W3C Interaction DomainReceived on Tuesday, 16 February 2016 09:03:58 UTC
