Think of this as generating a saturation contrast mask. Currently you can make a grayscale map of relative luminance values, the luminance of a channel, or of specific hues (Color Range) – but not of relative saturation values. I’d like to be able to correct a specific range of values in an image with respect to saturation. For instance, I’d like to take all values below a certain level of saturation and correct them, without affecting values in the file with saturation above a certain level. And vice versa (i.e. all values above a certain level). If this is implemented as a grayscale map, that map can be used as a mask for any correction tool. Reviving the old HSB plug-in might do this.
