No reason to wait, Adobe abandoned development of this product long ago...

Sorry if all this sounds silly!
You need to build full gamut profiles of both devices and use proofing
methods to gamut limit one to the other. This is free in Photoshop for
images, but page layouts are a different problem. Doing it your way won't
work, and will in fact reverse the gamut reduction you are looking for.
