Polygon and Bezier curve Masking

What problem do you see this solving?

I've been testing capture one for a few days now and the masking tools just aren't enough for me.

It would be super helpful if capture one had masking tools like polygon and bezier curves.

The magic brush tool is good but too imprecise for me in some cases. Edges are not recognized correctly. If the tools were there I would buy without hesitation.

There is already a post about AI masking. That would of course also be a good thing.

When was the last time you were affected by this lack of functionality, or specific tool?

While I was testing capture one. The last few days.

Current workaround

Are you using any workarounds or other solutions to achieve your goals in Capture One?

I couldn't find any workaround so far,

    I totally agree. AI masks are a good time saver but when coming to precise masking, for example on still life images that need to be separated or have different edit from the background, precise masking via bezier pen would be absolutely necessary. Also, a great feature, since for example comments are exportable on a separate layer to Photoshop, also masks would be great to have. Why do the same job twice??

    So, bezier pen tool for masks + black and white mask export as a layer to external edit software.
