FWIW, the dye-sublimation printers that Gutenprint supports nearly all 
have a manufacturer-supplied ICC profile, and putting aside the question 
of redistributibility, I would very much like to have a gutenprint-based 
printer application provide said profile to the application on demand, 
and/or automagically apply it to whatever is printed.
