this was the LGM 2012 :-O
At this years LGM 2014 in Leipzig Chris Murphy  a CMS expert was present.
At the end of the event he was asking if anyone is interested in joining a workgroup to implement cms into the destop. So that any application can use it.
I do not know how far this idea went.
The cairo roadmap seems a little bit outdated, but who knows ...

Adrian Johnson has come up with some patches a couple years back to
get color management into cairo, but they went nowhere for a couple
reasons, one of which is because we weren't responsive. I wouldn't be
surprised if they're completely bitrotted at this point.

The branch is here:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~ajohnson/cairo/log/?h=color-space

Read more about it, thanks to Alexandre doing a write-up:

I have no idea if the conversation on the cairo list went anywhere
after the LGM article said it resumed.

Cheers,
Josh
