That is what I am planning...but I am debating whether to use an
internal spline(probably a cosine spline, maybe an optional cubic
spline), or to use a color_map(easier, multiple "film types" can be
declared in an include file and used in the "curves" filter, but I
suspect only uses linear interpolation.).
Maybe a "blend_type" option should be added to _maps to switch between
cosine, linear, cubic, etc. This would solve the problem with using
color_maps, and make anything which uses color_maps, texture_maps,
normal_maps, etc more flexible as well.
