Research direction

Reproduce the problem in the Windows client using the two pictures from the linked color-management test, comparing them on a monitor with a different OS color profile. Investigate the conversation image display path and platform color-profile handling. Done means embedded and monitor profiles are respected so the pictures display with matching, correct colors.
