+--[[About this Plugin
+
+This plugin provides a workaround for a bug that causes the colors in a
+Sigma Foveon DNG to be displayed incorrectly. The bug is described in
+depth here:
+
+https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/issues/16586
+
+It works by disabling color calibration and resetting white balance
+to "as shot" upon first loading a Sigma Foveon DNG image in the darkroom. It
+is applied only once, i.e., you're free to adjust the white balance
+setting as you see fit without the plugin interfering on the next load.
+
+With many thanks to Bill Ferguson for pointing me on the right track.
