Maxwell Image Controls - Curves or Levels adjustment

I wish the Maxwell Image Controls had something like a PS curves or levels adjustment layer.

I almost never want to clamp an image at a min or max level but I often want to remap it to a different range.

Can you import in to Photoshop plugin and adjust there?

Or am I thinking of something different of what you're trying to do?

I could, but I think it would be a second image and occupy additional RAM then.

I just want to reiterate that I've never found it useful to clamp a continuos tone grayscale mask to a min or max value, but I've often wanted to re-scale it to a new min and max.

And it's not just that I don't want to do it before it hits Maxwell, it's that I want to use the same image multiple times: as a displacement, as a roughness, whatever else, and the settings that would make it work for one thing wouldn't well for another. Maybe I want the continuous tone image to run between 0 and 255 for displacement, but the same continuous, unclamped values to range from 190 to 255 for roughness.
