/** Information how to interpret certain color data.<p>

    This interface encapsulates all information that is necessary to
    interpret color data, by defining a describing color space, like
    for example CMYK or sRGB. You can either convert between this and
    an arbitrary other color space, or into the standard RGB or ARGB
    formats (because those are so overwhelmingly common in computer
    graphics).<p>

    All canvas interfaces standardize to sequences of IEEE doubles for
    color representation. As this is overly verbose when used for
    bitmap data, derived interfaces exist,
    e.g. XIntegerBitmapColorSpace, which use sequences of
    integers for color representation.<p>

        Color space components tend to correspond to physical

        in the final output color. This method returns a sequence of
        tags, specifying for each component of a color value, to what
        color attribute (if any) it corresponds. The values must be
        one of the ColorComponentTag constants.<p>

        At the same time, the number of elements in this sequence
        corresponds to the number of color channels for this color
        space.<p>
