Hi, I've been "digesting" the last few list messages a bit belatedly,
but in that respect I'd like to add a much simpler suggestion:
an additional gamut warning for the display.
It would be helpful to know where the displayed color is unreliable
(i.e. clipped) even if it is reachable in the current proof setup
space. This has popped up a couple of times in discussions during
the last few years, so maybe it is of general interest.
Best regards,
Hanno Hoffstadt

So, for those who don't find Photoshop's gamut warning useful: what other
information could we provide to help you? What is missing?
The customize soft proof. Note, I am working with both conventional "sRGB"
and wide gamut displays (neither is close to prefect). But I want to see the
customize soft proof with the paper and ink simulation ON next to the same
image without (currently that means I have to duplicate the document which
should be addressed) and having the rest of the PS UI without white
simulation on isn't helpful. But I attempt to do minor editing to the
duplicate image to pull it closer to the original. That usually means a few
slight tweaks to curves, and Hue/Sat on adjustment layers in layer sets
named for the profile and intent I'm working with. There's a lot that could
be done in the customize soft proof to make this all easier. I think it
would be even more ideal in the Lightroom environment for a number of
reasons I'll refrain from discussing here.
Bottom line is, I want to SEE a good simulation of the printed piece on
screen (tough to do), not some overlay that tells me those colors are out of
gamut.
