Details

It causes problems for the most widespread Linux distribution - K/Ubuntu as described in this bug report https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=629312 and some others. It is hard to diagnose the problem even for advanced user, regular users are probably lost and may blame Firefox for the rendering issues (even that it isn't its fault strictly speaking, it will be perceived as such). The easiest fix is to disable it by default until resolved, if I understand it correctly other browsers do not even support color correction and it doesn't hurt their adoption while this bug certainly has a potential to hurt the adoption of Firefox on Linux. So I'm posting this for consideration, thanks.
This seems the same as bug 655637.
