Color-to-gray acts a bit as tone-mapping on the (virtual) luminosity channel in practice. You can do a poor man's HDR by:
- duplicating the image layer
- applying C2G to the bottom layer
- setting the top image to Color mode
The only problem with that is that C2G is quite slow and noisy, getting a usable setting requires patience.
