Isn't that what a log pot for the decay and release times would do anyway? 
My SH-09 uses log pots for attack, decay and release in a conventional 
analogue ADSR stage and I can't ever remember thinking that the control law 
for these controls felt wrong.

Or are you saying that Moog replicated this behaviour with digitally 
generated envelopes in the little Phatty?
