The ICC profiles to which the zwp_colorspace objects point can be compared 
easily: Each ICC profile contains an unique 128 bit fingerprint in the header so 
that only this fingerprint has to be compared.
Do you think that this is enough or do you want this information to be 
duplicated in the zwp_colorspace object?
