Personally, I'd rather this feature wasn't implemented in-camera but was
available in software on the computer. My dream situation would be to have a
RAW (or similar) file from the camera and then be able to apply various
"looks" or profiles to it in the software/plug-in for loading in the file.
So I could then say "I want this image to look like Provia" and see the
results and if I didn't like them then go, "okay, let's try Velvia instead".
