This sounds exactly what I want, the source of my confusion seems to
be Adobe - Here's what it says in the Color Settings dialog re
Absolute Colorimetric in Photoshop 7:

Absolute Colorimetric: Attempts to match the absolute Lab coordinates
of the destination colors to the absolute Lab coordinates of the
source colors. Does not adjust for the different media white points.
Mostly used for "logo" colors, and for hard proofing. Not recommended
for most color conversions.


The "not adjusting to media white points" seems to be what I don't want.
