At the very least, if we could get Channel Tools updated to VST3 and/or integrated as a ProChannel module, that would also be something I use for precise stereo panning a lot.

Surprise, I also know of a free product that can help out with this until such time as the Cakewalk developers implement the feature natively:

DMG Audio Track Control.

What you need is a stereo offset control to shift the stereo image to the left or right of centre and also a stereo width control.  They used to be standard on early BBC consoles with stereo channels.

Several good bits there, no doubt. The main ask though, is to incorporate the control into the channel strip without a 3rd party. And although the supplied plugin Channel Tools does the job, it is a separate operation to use it when mixing. Plus, it is only VST2.

I do already use Channel Tools a fair amount for stereo imaging, and in fact I have a few FX chain presets where I have used the custom GUI options in the ProChannel to create some quick (though sometimes quirky) controls for what I use most often (primarily stereo image shift), but again, that requires moving away from the rest of the basic channel strip controls to use easily when mixing. A lot of digital mixers have at least independent L/R sliders instead of a single pan knob on the stereo channel strips.
