If working in advertising company, where most media are printed, photographs have to fit in CMYK color range. 
RGB files are only source images. Some works needs extra colors like CMYK+1, CMYK+2. Problem is that Adobe 
divided it's suits pack's into web and printing design, and GIMP is now pointing into photography, not into 
all professionals needs. I would like to say my boss that there is open source software that can be run into 
production process, with great abilities, but since it can not make such simple thing like multichannel or 
even CMYK editing I can not do it.
