I don't know about any fully integrated color correction solution for
Sane frontends -- but you may have a look at free software for color
management and color corretion. A few links for a start:

Karl-Heinz Kremer's link collection:

color aid:
http://www.coloraid.de/

Especially LCMS and GCMS, mentioned on both sites, may provide what you
need.
