You say that but the current work around is to use HDR.
IMHO HDR is a technique which can give great or horrible results and all the spectrum in between the good and bad.  I think that getting a sensor with a 15 stop capture range would enable for better photography rather than gaudy disasters.

I am not sure a straight 15 stop range would generate the same 'dynamism' as HDR. I agree it can be overdone but I suspect it's the actual overcooking of the HDR process that makes the images more interesting. Not sure just expanding the dynamic range of the sensor would achieve the same excitement?
