Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. First review the project's color-type and conversion APIs, then clarify the intended CMYK scope and ICC profile requirements; done would mean an agreed implementation plan rather than a defined change.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

enhancement

This is by no means a big issue but I am curious to know if there are any plans for adding CMYK as a color type. I realise that this might be a lot of work since ICC color profiles would need to be used for proper CMYK conversion.
