Regarding the bug: I found the piece of code that handles the CMYK values to be scaled as [0,1]. Now making a change to scale values in [0,1]-->[0,100] (though mentioned as a more industry friendly standard) shall require changes to generic codes which also handle the CMS sliders of RGB Color profiles. Also, the interconversions b/w floats of [0,1] to rounded of integers in [0,100] shall cause some loss of accuracy as well. 

Can people who are more experienced in the designing fields be brought together for poll ? If many people want this change, I am up for tweaking the source file in question. Pardon my audacious attempt of suggesting an idea of taking a vote, but in my respect it does seem important. 

PS: For the more experienced developers, am I right in thinking that the scaling will cause a loss of accuracy ? 

Thankyou for the help.

Please ignore the previous request. I figured out how to re-create the situation. Also, learnt about ICC and other color management basics. 
Thanks.

How to re-create the scenario being talked about in the bug report. All I get their is A(Alpha) value for my inkscape. The bug mentions the word 'ink'. I am guessing it refers to matching the printed colours and the colors on your monitor, as its a matter under the CMS (Color Management System). 

As an artist, I haven't worked on very high profile projects such that minor color chnages would make a huge impact so I am totally oblivious to the whole CMS thing.
