Gwenview Has Broken Dislpaying of P3 Wide Gamut Photos (iPhones, Google Pixels)

SUMMARY
***
Gwenview Cannot Dislpay, what I believe is called P3, wide gamut, photos [vide wikipedia]. I think iPhones and Google Pixels make them. By now its a good few years old "standard". Gwenview does not know how to open/display them.
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use gwenview - cannot display photos [any version of Gwenview]
2. Use (n)sxiv - no problem
3. See side by side comparison in the attatched screenshot

OBSERVED RESULT
Gwenview cannot display photos.

EXPECTED RESULT
Fix Gwenview to be on par with sxiv in displaying photos from iPhones and Google Pixels.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
