Lighting override similar to material override

It would be useful to have a "lighting override" similar to the material override function that will essentially override the color of any light in the scene to white or a specified color. It's useful for compositing. Why? In architectural photography photo's are often edited to be as neutral as possible. However, I prefer to set my lighting up with realistic kelvin values and sky/sun strength set to default for physical accuracy. Having a lighting override would allow users to create a 100% neutral version of the image for use in compositing. Especially useful for evening scenes where the difference between warm interior light and cold exterior light is often beyond what you can compensate for in photoshop. Im aware there's lightmix, but it just doesn't feel the same...
