You mean "some artists". :-) I'd like to consider myself in that group, 
and... well as you can tell I like HLS. Actually I can usually work with 
either but I think there are a lot of advantages to HLS, especially if 
you are trying to create lighting effects. (Which is why I think HLS 
should be available for UI designers, e.g. style writers.)
