That's what I'm using now and the new Visualize Spots in LR helps
immensely,  but we're talking about thousands of tiny white spots that take
hours to heal or clone out :-(

With the Polaroid software, you could tell it to find light or dark spots
and remove them.  Applied on a layer, you could then brush them out easily
a hundred at a time without affecting the rest of the photo.
