Re: filmscanners: VueScan Histogram was VueScan 7.3.2

I'm all for having a histogram but I would be just as happy to see the
clipped pixels shown with a warning color.  I depend more on this feature in
Insight than I do the actual histogram.  (partly because Insight doesn't
allow gamma changes when saving in AdobeRGB)  At least with the clipped
pixels highlighted I can set WP & BP well enough to get a reasonable
histogram and finish in Photoshop.
