Yes, that's the way I've always wanted to do it for Krita. I just never had 
the time to add the bits needed for that (the checkbox in the overview 
docker, the colorchooser in the preferences, setting the flag in 
KisImage::renderToProjection(), and, most importantly...

Fixing the color selector, indeed. It's a pity Cinepaint is GTK 1 and we're 
Qt4, or we could try doing a great colorselector together! Even Photoshop 5.5 
already supported masking out the out-of-gamut areas in their color selector.

:-) Sometimes it pays to have a simple-minded interface. I'm so glad we 
dropped the multiple-images-in-one-document idea two years ago!
