P: HSL Adjustments for Local Adjustment Tools

There are two powerfull tools that cam be aded to the lightroom pannels.
The HSL pannel has color and point color control. What if you can build a new pannel next to the brush pannel that has all the adjustments(wb, exposure, clarity, sharpnes,...etc) BUT has the point color technology, so you can afect a single color with these setings, ex. the skin softness may be eassily adjusted in a bunch of photos at a time rather than painting one by one.(the portraiture plug-in does that decently)
The other thing that might be added in the detail pannel is a highpass filter with it being the last effet added on export.(capture nx2 has it as a filter)

Can you make the local adjustment brush PLEASE link to an active individual color channel so you can brush to desaturate red and orange (skin tones for oompa loompa people in wedding parties!)? This would be so much faster than other methods of dealing with this problem.

I would also love to see the HSL sliders added to the Adjustment Brush. This would make it a lot easier to locally increase/decrease a certain color.

It seems that now i can only specify a color overlay or use the White Balance setting, but it would be simpler if I could be specific on a color. Example: I sometime shoot vehicles with a garage door open. This places a blue cast on one specific portion of the vehicle. I would like to be able to use an adjustment brush to only affect that one area where the cast is a problem and reduce the saturation of the blue. I can use the normal HSL settings, but it affects the whole image. White Balance changes more colors than I want in that area.

Would love to see the addition of an adjustment brush for the HSL (Hue / Saturation / Luminance) tool. Often when working with skin tones, the subject may have too much red/magenta and if the targeted Hue/Saturation levels are used, other items in the image that also share red and orange tones are affected. For example, a caucasian subject with fair/pinkish skin, reddish-blonde hair, and red lipstick. Make any adjustments to the skin tone and the hair and lips also shift. If they're wearing any jewelry or clothes that have red/orange tones and those are now changed; terrible if working on a fashion catalog where colors must be reproduced accurately.

An adjustment brush for HSL would be a great way to solve this problem.

The current saturation and colorizing features of LR feel inadequate; sometimes you just need to (de)saturate a single color in a single area of the image. The white balance brush coming up in LR4 seems like a nice start, and I hope HSL controls will get there as well.

Love the adjustment brush. I find that many times I wished had HSL controls in there. For example, a wedding dress typically picks up a blue tint that I'd like to remove. If the dress has other colors I don't want to desat, I'd love control over just the blue channel to paint out the cast.

I would love the ability to make local changes to colour and / or white balance in different areas of an image, ideally via the adjustment brush. This could helpfully help adjust mixed lighting situations where usually the best colour balance /white balance is a compromise.

Perhaps each pin could have sliders next to each pin on screen to adjust parameters quickly (similar to nik interface?)

Whilst I agree with TK, that having all adjustments be subject to masking would be preferable, I also acknowledge that this might require a bigger redesign than Adobe is willing to do in Lr4. That said, I think we need to prioritize what we'd like to see local-able. Present colorizer is hardly adequate for local color adjustment: +1 vote HSL...

All image adjustments should be "brushable".

There should be no need to have an extra adjustment brush panel that duplicates only some of the controls.
