I agree, but that doesn't mean that we should let users profile
targets by printing in GIMP, eye-of-gnome and Picasa. Instead it makes
perfect sense to have either a power-user application that's designed
for doing this kind of thing, or even a command line utility that can
print a target on the local system without doing any CM. Putting the
opt-out checkbox in all GUI applications is the wrong thing to do in
my opinion.
