This actually corresponds to my experience: Use ProPhotoRGB as target
to do your initial Raw conversions with ACR/PS and work in it, print
directly to inkjet, and your prints will be pretty bad.

Of course, my workflow was probably wrong, but the whole point of
workflows seems to be that the user is always wrong.
