Getting RAW look like the embedded JPEG

Question

This has been asked before, but I can't find the answer, so I will ask
again.
How do I get Lightroom to make the RAW file START it's adjustments with
the full in-camera adjustment settings, so the RAW initially looks
somewhat like it would if I had just shot JPEG?
When processing Canon RAW images (we use a mix of 10D, 20D and 5D
bodies), the initial 'unadjusted' image sometimes (often) looks VERY
different from the camera adjusted JPEG of the same photo. The reason
for the difference is that the JPEG has the camera adjustments applied,
but the RAW doesn't. You don't need to shoot RAW+JPEG to see the effect,
because the embedded preview in the RAW file is an adjusted JPEG, and
many programs use that to display previews.
The problem is that sometimes the JPEG looks darn nice because the
camera did a pretty darn good job processing the photo, but the RAW
looks flat, bland and lifeless. And it takes a whole lot of futzing
around to get it to look 'as good' as the dumbed down in-camera JPEG.
So is there some setting that I'm missing that reads in the full
'as-shot' settings of the camera, and correlates them to initial
settings for the RAW? It would be nice to be able to just tweak the
image from that point forward.

>Obviously cameras can vary in the particular model range, so doing the For (or similar) calibration will be specific to your camera.
Since the output of the default JPEG rendering pipeline of current DSLRs is anything but calorimetrically accurate (it is designed to be pleasant, not to be used in a metrology laboratory), calibrating for accuracy is going to do little to make LR RAW output and in-camera JPEG processing come closer.
And while the current incarnation of LR provides significant control over color, I still think it is not sufficient to reproduce some of the effects used in OEM RAW developers and in-camera JPEG processing.
In particular, I am not convinced it is possible to reproduce Canon's handling of reds within LR using presets that would reproduce canon "Normal" picture style.
