Hmm. Doesn't sound too hard. Ideally it needs to be part of the profiling chart
printing process. If the profiler submits the test chart to the driver/print queue,
it should be able to retrieve the metadata at the same time, so that it can
tag the resulting profile. For a manual test print, there would be a user
option to save the meta data to some file.

For an RGB only printer or driver, "CMS off" equates to a "full gamut" mode, if it
is supported, rather than a "reproduce sRGB/AdobeRGB etc." mode.
