Just tested out the new Dehaze tool in Lightroom, it works great when the camera settings stay the same, but in HG workflow be aware that it can induce some major flickering when the camera setting changes (even with small dehaze values)
Here are examples with Dehaze value set to 0 (no flickering, just natural changes between pictures), 10, 20 and 50. The sequence was deflickered with LRTimelapse Visual deflicker tool.

The camera setting changes from 0"5 to 0"6 second exposure on that moment. I have done some other postprod on theses pictures in Lightroom but dehaze seems to be the cause of flickering here. I don't think it's a clipping issue cause I've used ETTR and the parts where the flicker is visible is not only on hihlights.
EDIT : that also seems to be connected to the white balance. Whith a white balance of 5000 to 7000, there doesn't seem to induce too visible flicker (even with dehaze at 50), but with a higher white balance, that problem start coming (not good for sunsets or sunrises timelapses)
