Davidn I'm not sure I totally get the issue.
Now if you problem in setting density and ink limit there's a shortway 
to that. Instead of declaring an ink as a grey ink, go to the "load 
curve", in their you can either use the Point List or the Load Curve 
options. The latter loads a Photoshop acv curve. Basically you draw a 
Photoshop curve that defines your ink usage and you can set anything. 
It's quite convenient.
