Gordo - Let's see a Rerint called "Managing Exceptions"
If the PDF file is submitted in RGB or 15 spot colors, but the customer selected 4/0 - which means the XML that is injected a CMYK 4/0 - then the preflight system needs to either reject the job with some explanation like "color space does not match job ticket" - so the customer or designer knows what to do - or - the preflight system performs the Global Change / Action List / PitStop Server / Power Switch sort of thing, and converts the PDF into the required condition, regardless if the buyer or designer know - or care - about prepress minutiae
Enjoy your laugh. It is happening.
