sorry for the misspelling. Exactly Colors->Map->Gradient Map is what i meant.
Here again, a balance between emphasizing certain photo areas
and adjusting the global tone is desired.

Indeed, clipping is under full control right now. Applying the on-canvas idea,
it's interface could be supplemented by marking the border between important
image regions and those regions which can be color-clipped without regret.

More useful would be augmented feedback:
- how harsh does the clipping start?
- which details get lost?
- is one of R,G,B clipping early?
Something more advanced than letting the clipped pixels blink could
be interesting here.
