be defined as its shown (meaning if it was created on your monitor, you 
probably want to assign it monitor color definitions), versus the Windows assumption 
that if it does not scream "I'm something else" (and sometimes even if it 
does) it should be treated as sRGB. Neither assumption will work all the time. 
sRGB would be a better browser assumption, while monitorRGB would often be a 
better local file assumption.   Offering prefs that allow you to choose between 
the two options in applications would eliminate the entire issue...
