For b&w this approach may actually provide a greater useful range than a b&w only sensor.

Interesting read Paul. I was just wondering what advantage this has 
over just using "filters" in Photoshop? 
Now to pose a question I have been wondering about: if a sensor were 
made specifically for B&W, what would be changed? Admitedly a novice 
in this area, I am merely thinking out loud here. If we knew what 
would be changed perhaps there is a filter set that can be used 
to "alter" what the sensor sees.....which I guess was the reason for 
your email, LOL. I guess I was thinking more along the lines of 
a "standard" filtration set for most B&W situations instead of 
fiddling around with different filters for each shot.
