We cleaned the Preferences dialog a little and reordered options in a more logical manner. The Color
Management page was redesigned following both internal and user-visible changes in relevant parts of GIMP
(see below), and the _Snap Distance_ options have been moved to a dedicated _Snapping_ page.

The startup splash screen now features a pulsing progress bar to indicate that GIMP is not frozen. This, as
well as initializing fontconfig in the background (also a new feature in 2.9.4), is meant to address a common
issue where rebuilding the fonts cache (or building it for the first time) can take a lot of time hence
making an impression that GIMP freezes at startup. We acknowledge that this is a workaround. Fixing the
actual reason involves hacking on fontconfig. If you are interested, there is a [bug
report](https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64766) on that.

The color management implementation got a complete overhaul in this version of GIMP. Instead of being a
pluggable module, it is now a core feature. Moreover, we added an abstraction layer that makes GIMP less
dependent on [LittleCMS](http://www.littlecms.com/). This means that in the future GIMP could use native APIs
on Windows and OS X, and/or use [OCIO](http://opencolorio.org/).
-For now, it has helped us to clean up the code a lot and introduce a clean implementation of color
management to various bits of GIMP such as: previews for flat and gradient swatches, patterns, various color
widgets (including the drag-and-drop color widget), the Color Picker tool, layer and image preview etc. The
only unmanaged bit for now is the color widget in the Script-Fu and Python-Fu plug-ins. Moreover, GIMP will
track which monitor the widget is currently on (different monitors would have different ICC profiles assigned
to them) and color-correct it accordingly.

Grayscale images are first class citizens in GIMP once again: since v2.9.4, GIMP can color-manage them as
well.
