I've built many profiles for "RGB" inkjet printers and struck the black point hue shift problem many times. When there is no any printer RIP control (just RGB-driver only) it's impossible to control printer black point (R=G=B=0). The problem is aggravates by the lack of contrast on some media. Usually, the colprof is aspiring to the black neutrality at the cost of maximum b/w contrast. But in some cases the higher contrast (*L range) is more desirable than black neutrality or color mapping tolerance. May be the feature, similar the "-k" in dispcal will be usefull for colprof too. It may control black "fake" level for perceptual and saturation rendering intents. For example, with "1" value the black point is about neutral, but lighter than darkest. The mapping is performing as usual. With "0" value the intended black point is shifted to match the darkest device combination. There will be tone shift on print, but the contrast may be visibly higher.
