Thanks all!
Even with highlight recovery disabled, we lose much of the details.
Perhaps a programmatic way of doing something similar to what I did
(computing some kind of (weighted) average of the original R-G-B-R
photosite values and applying that to add fake luminance on top of
'average colour' surrounding the area) could work.
Note that an exposure correction of -1EV combined with 'reconstruct
color' brings out reasonable detail, though the previously blown-out
part is still *much* brighter than anything around it.

Now, any idea about the behaviour of the colour picker (being
unaffected by the highlight recovery method, and also displaying lower
L value for the visually brighter spot)?

Thanks,
Kofa
