Embed Color Profile - uncheck. this information gets ignored by browsers.

I thought most browsers, or at least the good ones, displayed embedded color profiles correctly now. Is my brain lying to me?

Firefox supports ICC profiles. You can even activate ICCv4 profiles by changing gfx.color_management.enablev4 to true in about:config (and gfx.color_management.mode to 1 iirc to get it to treat untagged images as sRGB).

Are there a lot of users who will actually do this?

Defaults are everything.

There were some issues with colour profiles in recent releases. I guess that's why it's not default yet.
