I'm just curious (mainly because I think the results could be interesting), have you considered editing a series of your photos so they look just right to you? Even though the colours might be off, it would be intentional and sort of a creative vision sort of thing. Not saying there's no place for fixing up your colours, but for some reason it just struck me that it could be interesting to see.

Otherwise one thing I don't think I've seen mentioned much is that you could use the colour charts at the start of each lighting situation to help you in your edits later. You put them in your photograph and then you can use the values that you get to apply those values to your other photos. This page explains it better and has links on it.
