Inclusion of this information, as well as stuff like gamut, gamma, and white point would be *critical* to a fully functional 3dLUT format.
3DLUT format spec is not complete yet. In the beginning the current state was more than enough, but now I'm perfectly aware that it's not. Unfortunately I currently don't have time to finish it, so we have to discuss it later.

No, it's not. The black and white with FP is not always 0.0 and 1.0. That happens only with levels 0-255.

Using a 9/16 (768MB) 3DLUT for a small increase in precision it's not worth it. The 9/32 (1536MB) shows a significant theoretical increase, but probably no one would be able see any difference, so it might not be worth it too...
