Maybe I'm looking at this from a different perspective, specifically
these people: http://www.packagekit.org/pk-profiles.html

Most of these people won't ever change the defaults. Most of these
people won't profile anything. But what I want to allow is Bevan to
buy a ColorMunki, plug it in, print out a reference, scan it in, and
then the printer is "fixed". These kind of people will just re-profile
if they are going to print 400 photos on glossy paper, and probably
just for special occasions.

I know it's a very different use case to the ones you guys and girls
are discussing, but still an important one in my opinion. We just need
to make the common case work out of the box, and the special-case
possible.
