Yep, PS and Corel Photo-Paint facilitate pretty flexible color management
and substitution. Photoshop has become regarded as the de facto standard
now, but not for any better reason than Windows is considered the standard
PC OS. Photo-Paint is as powerful and in my experience much better with
resource management. I can run it on a Pentium 90MHz with 40MB RAM, which
PS would routinely lockup.
OTOH, unless one is a pro graphics artist or doing pre-publication prep, or
absolutely must have the bit depth PS and PP offer, there are several other
photo editing tools that are le$$, and easier to use.
The real deal now is Silverfast, which allows extensive pre-scan editing -
preferable to post-scan.

I got a free copy of Kai's PhotoSoap 2 with my flatbed scanner and it has 9
separate saturation controls for different colors. So you can saturate or
desaturate any specific color. Do the high end photo softwares (read
Photoshop 5) have this type of control?
Thanks.
