The long answer is "If you actually need this feature in the software, wait until the feature is present before purchasing. No one here knows when, or if in fact it ever will be added."

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

No. However, there are a number of free tools that offer tracing. If one of them does a good enough job for you, and you're willing to use multiple applications in your workflow, you could combine one or more of them with your use of Designer.
