display_icc = sRGB icc
proofing_icc = WideGamutRGB icc

Is this correct?
input_icc: the (embedded) icc of the clip/image
display_icc: the monitor icc in spool
proofing_icc: for now let's suppose it's the icc of a printer

Soft proofing is for simulating how the image will be printed, while the result is shown on the monitor.

The printer may not reproduce all the colors of the image. This can be identified by the gamut checking.
In such situation, the rendering "intent" handles how colors are printed. The default value comes from the header of input_icc.

The monitor may not reproduce all the colors of the simulated printing result. This is not identified by the gamut checking.
In such situation, the rendering "proofing_intent" handles how the colors are shown on the monitor. The default value comes from the header of proofing_icc.

For your case it might be
input_icc from image,
display_icc from monitor,
proofing_icc from monitor (same as display_icc).
