Ok, that makes sense. What about my other idea; if I wrote KColor as 
discussed, do you think that Pigment might want to make use of that? 
Would it be possible/reasonable to do things so that this hypothetical 
KColor would support additional color spaces in a dynamic manner? Or 
would it be better to limit KColor to sRGB space (with support for 
alternate representations of the same, i.e. HLS/HSV)?

Do you not expect Pigment to have settled down by the time KDE4 is released?
