you are interested and you have that - for A7R2: "0x7826 WB RGB Levels Fluorescent: 2228 1024 2256", so what is the next move for a raw shot produced under tungsten incandescent bulb for example ?
Exactly, that is the question we need to answer from the perspective of a reasonably educated user/photographer!
So, the next move imo would be:
1. User selects incandescent response (from a pop up with profile choices). This changes the ICC profile but not the multipliers.
2. User checks the color considered the colorcast (this should for example show the color of illuminant A relative to D50 initially)
3. User can adjust a slider to remove, increase or even invert the colorcast.
The "color considered colorcast" is the interesting part here. It could initially be the color of the illuminant that is part of the colorresponse profile relative to D50. So, incandescent will initially show a yellow color, Cloudy Daylight would for example show a blue color.
You can then set it via:
1. Temperature and tint
2. A colorwheel or colorpicker
3. derive it from the image (automatically or via the sampler).
So that still gives you all the options you have now, except we no longer need to fiddle with an apparently inconsistent Temperature and tint combo that influence each other and may even change the responseprofile under some definitions.
The procedure is then very clear to the user:
1. Select colorresponse depending on lighting conditions
2. Select the colorcast, e.g. by sampling a graycard
3. Reduce colorcast to taste...
Apply the same logic to the sunset case, and you immediately should see the advantage of this over Temperature & tint as some kind of control over whitebalance. In the latter case it operates completely counter intuitive because it is referring to a traditional indication of filmresponse.
