Color profile Link/Unlink in Document Properties

[ScislaC]

1) In Document Properties under the Color tab you can not "Unlink" a linked profile from the list.
2) There is no way to manually enter a location (such as if there were a URL you wanted to use, our detection methods obviously wouldn't know about that)

The context menu of a linked item has 'Remove' to unlink it.

Which was apparently not obvious enough for me... so now I guess the Q is to see if anyone else feels it merits something more obvious.

Is there an example URL/file to investigate this ?

Example file...

I'll be honest, it would be an odd workflow to not have a profile installed to a normal system location, but I could see a one off thing where a client might supply an odd profile you'd never have use for again.

@ScislaC, How do you suggest to deal with this ?
* Have the url of a color profile in the file,
* On file load 1) check for a cached version or 2) copy the icc file from url to the file system / into memory ?

Copying from a random url to the file system has obvious security implications.
