What do you mean by "washed out"?  _What's_ "washed out"?  Regardless
of what curve your grey-levels use, white should be white, and black
should be black, and fonts are mostly black and white....

[I guess you want to do any blending in a "linear" space
(non-gamma-corrected), but obviously whatever you hand off to the
display system should be in whatever space the display system
expects...]
