While skin colour isn't next on the table, I think they could possibly find a way to "justify" weeding out the mentally or physically challenged, the low IQs, etc.
Unnatural selection.

I'm pretty sure people are already able to select the embryo based on genetic defects. What if you have a family history of some genetic disease? Wouldn't it be a relief to choose an embryo you know didn't carry the defect and thus your offspring would not have to live with some tragic disease?
Yes, it is unnatural selection. It's also called progress.
