Or a global_setting to toggle like default settings that just stipulate: for
every pigment past this point assume every color raised to the power 2.2 or 1.8
or whatever but then we're back to assumed_gamma again. The trouble is too that
ambience and light intensities and a whole host of other variables
are also playing their part. At this point, I would just like to see 3.6 ported
with multi-processor support.
