Are browsers generally color-correct? I was going through the Webkit wide color examples and was getting different visual results on different browsers[1]:

Browsers are all over the place, unfortunately. It's part of why sRGB because the only reasonable color profile for Web use. I think we'll see wide color become common in apps before the Web.

All over the place in what way? Support for different color profiles? Actually handling color spaces at all? The fact that there's no consistency when it comes to untagged images? The mess which is plugins? The ability to specific CSS colors in a specific color space?
