It is stored in a C long, so I'd say 2GB on size. But I'm not sure X
server would be happy
to store such X atom..

Yes : there were two bugs in eog code (fixed in latest version 2.20.4
released some days ago) :
- images with EXIF colorspace info where not detected as such ; this
result in color correction disabled when viewing those images
- for people using xicc 0.1, eog was crashing when loading ICC_PROFILE
X atom (because of a bug in xicc). Fixed in xicc 0.2 (and eog 2.20.4).

No.  applying LUT and a X atom is not something worth adding a new
dependency on gnome-control-center. For now, I plan to do the applying
part. UI will come later.
