I'm sure there are comments to images in p.b.i of the type "It looks 
very dark" or "The colors are a bit washed out", even though it looks 
good on the authors computer.
What do you call these if not gamma problems?
There are, obviously, problems both ways. I've already stated how it 
IMHO should be solved. To make povray not write the gamma info is a 
workaround and not a solution. I have nothing against such an option as 
long as it's not the default.

PS. I meant to post a reply earlier but Christoph and scott already said 
pretty much exactly what I was to say.
