My suggestions seem simple and modest. Some of us often use SNS to edit a single image because its editing sliders and tools are so convenient (such as the gradient tool). Please consider the following improvements for those who process single images in SNS:
1: When the image begins to load, if SNS detects there is only a single image, have the "Create Image" box include choices to "Load a single image without any changes" and "Load a single image with suggested changes". If "Without changes" was checked, the image would appear and all of the sliders would be set at zero. After the image appears, a check box would allow tone mapping if the user changes their mind.
2: At the lower right should be an option to "Reset all sliders to zero". Having to double click on every slider to set them to zero is inconvenient. Does setting all sliders to zero restore the image to the original without tone mapping? If it does, suggestion 1 above may not be needed although not having to tone map initially would save time.
3: Most beneficial would be to allow the image to show blown highlights in red and pure blacks in blue. This can be done with several programs now, such as Luminar.
