Hello. It would be great to add in masking (in Lr, Ps and Acr) the vibrance slider. It is more usufel than Saturation. Also many cameras now have amazing Dynamic Range and it would be very good the option to add more brightness in the exposure and in Highlights, shadows. Many time we have to use the same masking just to add them.
Best regards.

The Saturation slider acts like the intelligent Vibrance slider when dragged to the right (+), but dragged to the left (-), it behaves like negative Saturation.

Thank you Rikk for your quick response, as for he dynamic range of the sliders, would it be possible to add more control, wider range? Most cameras have much more shadows and highlights range than the sliders included in adobe software, especially when editing an hdr image. Also i don't know if there could be an option to add saturate or desaturate and add a color cast in shadows and highlights. For example, when decreasing highlights a lot, they become bluish  and it would be very good to add a little yellow to  correct that. At the other side, when adding a lot of shadows they have a lot of saturation and some disaturate woulb be very good.

That's what masks are for! Create separate masks for shadows and highlights if you want to treat them differently.
