It is implemented (at least, on Mandriva Linux builds). But you have
to enable color management in Firefox manually :
-go to about:config
-change gfx.color_management.enabled to "True"
-restart firefox.

To check you have color management enabled, I suggest you go to
http://1reflet.skynetblogs.be/post/6632777/profil-colorimetrique-utilisateur-firefox
(sorry, it is in french). If you have working CM, the image will be
yellow, otherwise it will be purple.
