In a Mantra node, if I output some variable as a "VEX Type: float type",

...then resulting EXR has a channel list like this:

channels (type chlist):
    A, 16-bit floating-point, sampling 1 1
    B, 16-bit floating-point, sampling 1 1
    G, 16-bit floating-point, sampling 1 1
    Op_Id, 32-bit floating-point, sampling 1 1
    R, 16-bit floating-point, sampling 1 1

This Op_Id channel is read into "other.Op_Id" in Nuke, which seems
reasonable, but you can only see the name in a Copy node (the Shuffle
just shows it very similarly to a red channel of "other"):

If I select "vector type" in Mantra, it duplicates the data into Op_Id.r
Op_Id.g Op_Id.b and this shows up nicely in Nuke as a layer, but the EXR
is 3 times as large..

Anyone found a good solution to this?
