In the top message in this thread, I did propose some options. Here they
are again.
 - over/underexposure and raw overexposure with the histogram (I think
Adobe Lightroom has the over/underexposure right within the histogram)
 - style picker removed and the Style module moved from the Lightroom mode
to Darkroom mode
 - soft proof might be better to be within the Lightroom mode (but I'll
admit that I've never used it)
 - gamut check might be better within the Input Color Profile module as it
appears to be the module that can address any issues: the Perspective
module has the option of identifying vertical and horizontal lines before
you decide to apply a correction, the gamut check could work the same way
in the Input Color Profile module

I've never used the Presets quick picker and for the life of me, I can't
remember what the 6th option is.
