Extended Dynamic Range support

My app currently supports display and editing of RAW files in HDR mode (Extended Dynamic Range).

I came across 2 issues:

  1. In HDR mode, if I am using the default boostAmount = 1.0, then some of the highlight colors will shift. Like a clear blue sky becomes a light gray / light purple sky. I've to set boostAmount = 0.0 to avoid this problem. Is this a bug or is there a way to keep the Apple colors and not having this issue?

  2. The Shadow and highlight filter does not appear to work correctly in HDR mode, I've it hooked up in the linearSpaceFilter. Would be nice if you guys can introduce a spatial aware shadow & highlight filter.
