Unfortunately, I don't think there is any solution for this. The idea of 
using color values as displacement amounts is likely to confuse anyone 
who doesn't understand exactly how warps work, since it gives you direct 
control over the values used. The second type of displacement warp 
should be easier to understand, since colors aren't considered 
directions and distances, it just pushes the pattern toward or away from 
areas depending on their brightness.
Still, it is a lot more complex than, say, glows or black hole warps.
