As a test, I went ahead and tried printing a target using Vendor Matching, and then selecting No Color Correction that I found in the Color Mode popup menu on the Main tab of the Canon driver. It was not obvious to find it.
To my eyes, it is an exact match of the target printed using the Colorsync/Generic RGB method.
Since C.D. Tobie mentioned that Snow Leopard requires selecting sRGB instead of Generic RGB (for Leopard), maybe this No Color Correction setting keeps things less confusing? Assuming it is in fact doing the right thing? I do wonder if it is something that Canon added/fixed with the 1.39 firmware.
I'm going to try building profiles from both methods and see how it works out, but the prints do look identical to my eyes.

Yes, they're wrong. The idea for using Media Setting Check is
to print it uncalibrated, just like the target print, and with
Vendor Matching turned on, it's going to be just as "wrong" (calibrated)
as the target you'd printed that way.
