Graeme, am I right in supposing that pointing viewers adaptation to D50 for colprof lead to better matchig of the grayscale prints with other true neutral-in-D50 prints in D50-illuminated enviroment?
Only if it's a more accurate description of the viewing situation. If the print is actually neutral with respect to it's paper color, yet appears blue to the observer, then the observer must be making that judgement with respect to some other white reference. If they are viewing another print with a warmer white point as a reference, then this would explain the effect. A logical way of creating a better match is to specify what the situation actually is (by overriding the default assumptions of viewer white point), and then let the color appearance space matching do its stuff.
