Subject: [boost] [gil] undocumented/unintended concept requirements in color_convert

I was trying to add other color spaces support and noticed that the rgb
to cmyk converter contains:
typedef typename channel_type<P2>::type T2;
T2 x = channel_traits<T2>::max_value()-get_color(dst,black_t());
if (x>0.0001f) {
float x1 = channel_traits<T2>::max_value()/float(x);
T2 should model:
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_53_0/libs/gil/doc/html/g_i_l_0264.html
but this code additionally requires T2 to be greater-than comparable to
float and convertible to float.
