Hi Chris,

In SVG 1.1, we have:

* the @color-profile at-rule, which lets you reference an ICC colour
   profile, give it a name, and select a rendering intent to use;

* the <color-profile> element, which is just a markup version of the
   @color-profile at-rule;

* the 'color-profile' property, applicable on <image> elements,
   which lets you reference by name a particular color profile that has
   been defined with @color-profile or <color-profile>.

The at-rule and property were defined in the 2003 Candidate 
Recommendation of css3-color, but were dropped when the Recommendation 
was published.  Is there any plan to reintroduce these into a 
css4-color, which we could then reference, or should our definitions 
remain in SVG?
