Daniel,

I know you didn't pose that question to me, but it is not a slippery slope. While there may be gray about what is acceptable practice in the middle, nobody thinks trimming, color adding or paper restoration are acceptable. The slope will never got so slippery that it would lead you there.

Thus, in short, there may be areas of gray -- obviously -- but just because there is gray area in the middle, doesn't mean that you should wind up sliding one way or another.

You see the gray and want to have an absolute standard so that it can be black and white for you. But most of us see the same gray you are looking at and don't have much of a problem with it, because our issue is only with the really hardcore stuff -- again, trimming, color adding, paper restoring, etc.
