As Rune pointed out, if people are using gamma correction for reasons other
than gamma correction, then they're using the wrong tool for the job and
should not be surprised if it doesn't have the correct effect.

If someone wants to create an artistic effect that changes the values of
colors that the camera sees, then they should do this in their scene file.
One way would be to place an object in front of the camera which somehow
filters the color values.
