+The capabilities of the Color library are limited to pure mathematical
+manipulation of the colors based on color theory without reference to
+color profiles (such as sRGB or Adobe RGB). For most purposes, when
+working with the RGB and HSL colors, this won't matter. However, some
+color models (like CIE La*b) are not supported because Color does not
+yet support color profiles, giving no meaningful way to convert colors
+in absolute color spaces (like La*b, XYZ) to non-absolute color spaces
+(like RGB).
