Thanks
I will do some test and see which option is best for my need.

You can quite easily create your own modified copy (or replacement) of the Skeleton PMA Multiply shader. You just have to add the relevant parts from the Skeleton Tint shader
I finally tried the tint black approach recently. I modified the mentioned 3 lines in the shader but the sprites which use multiply blend mode display pure purple color. Is there something else I need to do to make it work?
Here is the modified shader:
// Spine/Skeleton PMA Multiply
// - single color multiply tint
// - unlit
// - Premultiplied alpha Multiply blending
// - No depth, no backface culling, no fog.
// - ShadowCaster pass
Shader "Spine/Blend Modes/Skeleton PMA Multiply" {

_Color ("Tint Color", Color) = (1,1,1,1)
_Black("Dark Color", Color) = (0,0,0,0)

// Outline properties are drawn via custom editor.
[HideInInspector] _OutlineWidth("Outline Width", Range(0,8)) = 3.0
[HideInInspector] _OutlineColor("Outline Color", Color) = (1,1,0,1)
