This would differ from the current standards by allowing users to preselect the different values for each color profile and lock them in, ensuring better consistency throughout materials.
For example, if the document is in CMYK, the color will adapt the the CMYK values applied and locked to the color. When dragged into a new project set up in RGB, the color would adapt to the assigned RBG values. This would also allow the opportunity to link a Pantone swatch with a selected CMYK value, rather than using default values for the color chosen.

You make a good point Egor. Considering that the color ends up relying on the printers, it could be difficult.
Although, it could rely on the document’s color mode? Such as, if the document is in CMYK the CMYK values are what would be printed and if it’s in RGB, the RGB values are what would be printed. Illustrator could output the right values for the swatch based on the document.
