Re-evaluate CCT with WLED and the HA WLED integration

From an end-user’s perspective, this is highly frustrating. The relevant tracking issue has been locked on the HA tracker.

Frankly, I find @frenck’s comment here quite disheartening:

I can respect that @frenck has no use case for this feature, which is totally fine.
However, Home Assistant is a community project.

I have no idea if there has been previous conflict between the maintainers of WLED and HA.
Both tickets indicate that communication broke down for some reason, and @frenck gave up on resolving the issue together with the maintainers of WLED for personal reasons.

Can we, as a community, find a modus operandi where we can find a working implementation that:

  1. follows HA’s requirements for integrations,
  2. benefits users with CCT LEDs who want to integrate them via WLED?

I am willing to contribute to help get this working, as long as HA maintainers indicate that they are willing to revisit this issue and work with the community on a resolution.
