This looks fine.

This may be fine for majority of users, but complicated for others.

Majority of my images in my albums are in sRGB (JPEGs from small cameras, final
images for web publishing), hence I use sRGB as the workspace.

Then I have few images in AdobeRGB (those for printing). I do not mind digiKam
editor asking me what to do on profile mismatch (AdobeRGB vs sRGB, of course I
keep the embedded), since there are just a few of such images.

But this means that if I want to convert a raw image to AdobeRGB, I would have
to change the workspace beforehand. Clumsy.

P.S. It just comes to my mind - what about adding another option to CM Settings
re. the profile mismatch. Now there is "Ask..." and "Convert to workspace...",
the one missing is "Keep embedded...". The last default option would solve the
above trouble - I could set AdobeRGB as workspace and digiKam would not ask me
for every sRGB image "what to do...".
