What you ask is nothing less than the ability to convert any placed images
in InDesign to any output profiles! A many to many relation, in database
parlance. It ain't going to happen tomorrow, if you ask me, InDesign's
engineers can't even get around to solve basic grayscale color management,
version after version, in InDesign (hope they do it soon). For your kind of
work, I understand you need to optimize every separations. But for everyday
catalog work, magazine, annual report, brochures and what not, it seems an
unecessary overkill. One output profile per document is plenty. Especially
when you consider that most places can't even supply an output profile for
their printing conditions, let alone provide guidance in RGB to CMYK
conversions.
