Bloom treshold? (repost from general)

I once posted this in general but got no response, I just want to hear a devs opinion on that.
So please let me know what you think Ahmet :D


Hey guys,
I have been using Octane for a while now and I´ve noticed a thing that bothered me. In some scenes I would like to use
some post effects like bloom. But since my camera is set to Linear which results in a higher-than-normal gamma level, I can´t really find a use for
the bloom or glare effects because the image gets all washed out. So I had the idea of a bloom treshold setting. I think that would really be appreciated.

edit* The idea is to have a treshold, that controls the bloom effect based on the brightness of a surface. For example:
Treshold is set to 99 --> only lights are effected by blooming.
