New user here, so apologies if I'm posting to the wrong list!
I've just switched fully from Lightroom 6 to Darktable 2.2.5 under Linux. Kudos to the developers - it's superb. The one and only feature I'm missing in Darktable is the ability to adjust for barrel or pincushion distortion manually. I realise lenses can be profiled for the "Lens Correction" module, but this is time consuming and doesn't allow for fine tuning of distortion to my own tastes (sometimes I don't want to fully correct, or I may perhaps add in a little distortion). At present, I have to export my files to TIFF, open them in GIMP and carry out adjustments in GIMP's "Lens Distortion" feature. This makes no sense when other correction features are provided within Darktable itself.

yes this might be a useful feature, especially for those who shoot with exotic lenses.

In case that you take pictures with Sony cameras: There is a camera app that does manual lens correction (peripheral shading, chromatic aberration and distortion) in camera. All corrections are included in the RAW file.
