Yes, I understood that -- it's quite unlikely. The colorspace code is written 
by a relatively small number of people, the image library code has had a 
larger number of contributions, making it harder. And, I'm not a fan of lgpl 
even for libraries myself. Cyrille is, Bart isn't -- the positions are 
divided.

What we could do is add an exception clause for Kolourpaint, I think nobody 
would object to that.
