you provide a lot of information about your desires, but sadly very little
about your system or dt version. iianm, what you desire is available and
has been for some time. there is a preset for the "lens correction"
module, "Auto Apply Lens Correction" but you must set the module on
perhaps using a style. mine is on but forgive ancient memory I cannot see
how.
