Default tonemapper that can not be turned off?

What you want to do makes sense, I just haven’t seen anyone else request it Have you tried those views I mentioned, at least as a visualizer to start with?

As far as the LUT issue goes, yeah that’s a problem area for everyone currently, but for a different reason. Epic might be phasing out LUTs altogether based on their recent updates to the color grading suite anyway, so no idea on what to expect in the future. It’d be nice if they supported LUTs in scene-referred linear as well as .cube formats.

The only thing I can think of is applying an inverse tonemapping in a post-process material set to “after tonemapping”, but with ACES the math gets a lot more complex. Might be worth looking into though

I personally would love to have just another value in the filmic tonemapper which would blend ACES tonemapper with linear. It would default to 1.0, which would mean full influence of the ACES tonemapper (in the same way LUT has influence slider), so nothing would change from the current behavior by default, but if someone actually needed to disable ACES tonemapper, or would like it to not have 100% influence, such slider would be useful.
