My previous query was somehow sidetracked, so here it is again:
- Can anyone give rationale for "Print colors preview" being in
Display modes? If not I will remove it from there, as I explained it
looks very out of place next to Outline and No filters.
Also:
- We also have "Color-managed view" in the same menu. Duplicate? If
they are genuinely different, please name them to better reflect this
difference, and place both in an appropriate submenu of View.
Otherwise, merge them.
And:
- We again have two Input Devices commands. Can we finally decide one
way or the other? Does the new one fully work? If so delete the old
one, otherwise hide the new until it is ready.
Thanks!

We have two at the moment because things are in transition.
The new one does not yet have all the needed functionality, but the old one is using GTK
features that are being deprecated and removed.

I was going to say that we need to get that out right away, but then I realized there are
some possible uses. The initial intent seems to be to allow for an artist to get precise
control over what they are doing for print work.
We really need to get some use cases in on this. However, since the implementation has
gone in using what are probably the wrong approaches for the internals, we might benefit
most by disabling/removing that until we can be sure we're addressing things the safe
way for the mid to long term.

Can we please hear from the initial committer of this? Maybe we're
missing something?

Do you think we can move the useful functionality from this into the
"color-managed view" command or dialog?

May I please point out again that "color-managed view" should be a
checkbox in menu?

Yes, you may. Do you have a bug entered for that?

Yes, https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/183956

We don't have any checkboxes in the menus yet, or do we? This would be a
first, so if someone implements this I'd gladly copy the code for the
snapping toggle ;-). I briefly looked into this before but somehow got
discouraged.

There are checkboxes in the show/hide menu. I think they might be
implemented using InkToggleAction.

Yes, you're correct, but thinks are slowly coming back to me now: these
are only toggled using the menu itself; IIRC I had troubles getting the
checkbox updated for some reason when it was triggered via a shortcut
key, or something like that. Should be quite straightforward though to
implement for someone who knows what he's doing ;-).
In this bug report a checkbox is asked for:

At the moment I don't think so.
They are really two separate items. Color managed view should be usable, and used, by any
even semi-serious person. This especially includes web artists. The print separation items
are a pre-press workflow step that would be used in addition to base management when
someone is trying to do very precise work for print. Note that this does not include all
people going to professional print houses for output.
