You are correct. I believe it would be very useful. However, I don't have a 
device that Firefox Mobile will run on. If I get one, I will see if I can make 
the extension work with it.

I'm provisioning some virtual machines to try and see if I can get it running.

Looking at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Fennec/Extensions, it seems like the 
biggest challenge will be in the user interface. How do I present the UI to the 
user? How do I allow the user to toggle when screen real-estate is so precious? 
And does Fennec even store its color profiles the same way that Firefox does?

A reasonable first cut might just use hard-coded color profiles with reasonable 
default settings and no actual UI. Either a gesture or a toolbar button could 
toggle. I don't know how easy it is to tie into Fennec's gesture API, but it 
would be difficult to test on the desktop. For the first attempt, a toolbar 
button should be easiest.

I will work on this when I have time, assuming I can get Fennec up and running 
somewhere. I might have to borrow a Windows box :(
