It seems to me that resorting to the saturation intent is not a common
practice, and that the reason why the user would seek to adopt would be to
boost saturation. Otherwise, they would use either Relative Colorimetric or
Perceptual.
So, if preserving (vs. boosting) saturation is the goal, then one should
first make sure that the target profile's saturation intent preserves the
existing chroma without boosting it.
Myself, I find that most of the time that is already done rather well by the
Relative Colorimetric intent (plus BPC).
