Well, part of my reluctance to add film curves specifically is that film is a dead technology; everything is digital now, including cameras. So from this point of view, there is very little sense in trying to emulate actual film response. However I do realize that getting a different “look” for an image might be a desirable properly, which is what LUTs and OCIO were designed for.
