Sure.

BUT:  Can I check in my change?  It does a pretty decent job, and exists now.
The existing code without it does a sucky job.

If doing this stuff correctly is complicated, then I it could be a while
before it actually gets done, and I really don't want emacs to be
released with the current bad behavior.  If doing things correctly turns
out to not be hard, then no prob, my ad-hoc code just gets replaced quickly.

If you like, I'll remove the user-visible parameters so there are no
compatibility concerns (the default settings work quite well for every
color I've tried, on at least two monitors with perceptibly different
color response).

Thanks,
