Short description of error
Empty Images have washed out colors when rendered using Viewport Render. As far as I see it doesn't affect materials.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Drag and drop any image into the viewport. Go to view> Viewport Render
In the viewport, reference images aren't affected by color management, but in the rendered output they are.
@Brecht Van Lommel (brecht) It's unclear to me what is the correct or expected behaviour here. In the end this doesn't seem like it's super critical, as reference images are meant for references, not output.
I think there's perhaps a double color transform going on. It won't always match exactly due to use color management settings, but should be closer than this.
This was fixed by the color management refactor in 2.83. The colors do not match 100% (because of different pipeline) but they are not washed out anymore.
