I don't think there's a one-sized-fits-all solution without something custom and extremely expensive ($15k+). Maybe a Lenovo T480 for most purposes and a dedicated second screen for color correctness? I had a Dell Studio XPS 1645 with an RGBLED screen with an insane gamut. It begs the question: Why aren't such screens widely available?

What about getting a T480 and replacing the screen itself? You can find a decent one for ~$400 USD, and a 1080p or WQHD screen for another $100.

As for screen availability, I think it's more to do with the fact that these are business computers. Lenovo only recently started blurring the line between their premium and business class devices.

I think every post-Haswell ThinkPad comes with a 720p screen in it's default configuration. At least up until Tx90/5 series.
