Gamut mapping
The below screenshot of ICC Examin working as CinePaint plug-in showes the mapping of a CIE*Lab colour grid to ECI-RGBv2 or LStar-RGB:
iccexamin-v0.45_lcms_Lab2ECIRgb_gamutmapping.png
The snapshot was created by assigning a Lab profile to Bruce Lindbloom's RGB16Million.tif . For better handling I scaled the Lab16million.tif to a handy size. Then the samples where viewed in CinePaint's ICC Examin plug-in. After that I had let CinePaint convert the Lab values to Rgb and ICC Examin showed the colour movement, appearent here as coloured lines. The small squares show the final Rgb postions. The projection is a 3D view into the CIE*Lab colour space from the CIE*b+ direction. The upper samples point to CIE*L 100 the lower to CIE*L 0.

Interessting is the front plane (+CIE*b) with the mapping of green, yellow and some oranges. They work in a almost lightness (CIE*L) preserving way. The left side (+CIE*a) reds, magentas and blues show a strong lightness modification. The snapshot helps me in improving my gamut creation algorithm in ICC Examin.
