Heh, good. :-)

Right, this is something I need help with. How many patches do we use
for quick, normal and slow profiling? I'm already using -h for
ColorMunki.

Ahh, I'm just blitting it to the cairo surface, without preserving
aspect. I guess we need to do that. I'm using
gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file_at_scale() which is probably a bad plan.

Hmm, it should already be using 300DPI thanks to the -t300 option.

Sure, I can't get my ColorMunki to self calibrate using chartread (see
the Argyll m/l) so I've not tested past this point.
