I have just been puzzling over the 'pink highlight' problem on several raws I recently shot (not HDR), all of which have blown highlights caused by a camera operator silly error :) I recently created a custom style for my camera and I thought that was something to do with the problem, so I'm glad it's a known characteristic for which a solution is available - don't over-expose!
I don't have much experience with HDR, however in the tutorials and explanations that I've seen at least one of the photos is overexposed. The typical use case is that of an indoor shoot that includes a view to the outside (during the day) through a window. Think of a cathedral, rather dark inside, with very bright stained glass windows. The overal dynamic range exceeds that which you can reproduce with one shot. So you shoot 2 or more pictures, at least one exposed for the shadows and one exposed for the highlights, and then combine them to HDR. The one exposed for shadows will necessarily have overexposure (clipping) in the windows.
My understanding is that if you don't need to overexpose, ie if you can get the dynamic range of the scene with one photograph, then you don't need HDR. Instead look up "expose to the right" technique.
