more color gamuts to work in rather than just sRGB

I discovered, while working on a job, that Luminar 2018 (Windows) is unusable for print jobs (most of my work) where I'm working in AdobeRGB. When brought into Luminar via the plugin (or even opened independently), my images looked hyper saturated because of the color compression from AdobeRGB to sRGB.

I'd like to see Adobe RGB added as a color preference under settings.

  Also ProphotoRGB should be a must in output profiles

  Hm, I was given the answer that the Luminar Neptune (a 2017 version) plugin used Melissa RGB internally. So now it‘s messing up AdobeRGB? How is this possible?

  All I know is that when I work with an image in Lightroom and them Photoshop, it looks good. When I send it to Luminar (and Aurora), it looks over saturated because of he way Luminar seem to handle color. sRGB compresses the colors, so it's not unusual to have things like over saturated skin, etc. When i bring it back into Photoshop, everything looks normal again, but Luminar makes it hard for me to render something (i.e. - Polarizing filter), because I'm not seeing an accurate rendition of the image in Luminar. I have the same issues with clients who want images in AdobeRGB, but use it in sRGB for web, but don't have quality monitors or calibrated systems. They then tell me the images are over saturated because they take the images from AdobeRGB to sRGB and expect them to look the same.
