I would like to see a tool work natively in Keyshot to convert HDRI to lightsource. The lights themselves could be direct, point, area, photometric, etc. It would work by taking measurements of the HDRI's whitepoint(s) to find the lightsource. These lightsources, once found could be merged, deleted, or added to the scene. The light creation would give the user the option for scale and shadow intensity, as well as name each light with a hue, brightness and transform parameters. Once created, the user would have the option remove the HDRI and use only the generated lightsource(s).

Of course anything with parameters should be animatable.

Rendering interiors there is need to place spot and simulate the right light cone.
