Kevin,

Good idea!

To the best of my knowledge, the only thing out there now is that you can
generate a wrapper for the 'aete' resource of the ColorSync extension
(actually a faceless background application) on the Mac, to have it embed,
match and proof an image with an ICC profile. To do this look for the
'getaete.py' file in the contrib folder.

P.S. the Windows port of ColorSync is expected around June.
