Cool, thanks for the information. (I'll write for gray-16 for now, then, 
I don't imagine porting to gray-32 if/when that is available will be 
seriously difficult.)

Right... the aforementioned gradient map. Actually, I was thinking such 
filter should probably let you pick what channel to use, with one (or 
more? but that might be overkill) options to combine channels.

I didn't mean *now*, I meant "eventually" :-).

Also, let me know if "some solutions in the workings" need help, as it's 
something I'd be interested in contributing to. (Not least because I 
have a valuable, corrupt :-( PSD that PS won't open at all and nothing 
else I've found yet - except *possibly* expensive commercial solutions - 
can open it without significant loss of information. Much of the loss is 
due to use of static-color layers, which is why I feel rather strongly 
about being able to handle those properly.)
