A try without doing anything but only disabling filmic and using sigmoid (from latest PR) lowering preserve hue. This gives a pleasing orange (IMHO not rat piss yellow) instead of the salmon of filmic and probably what @OrcLex is trying to obtain.
Doing this in the tone mapper could be considered wrong but it’ll be quite difficult and time consuming to obtain this by using other modules. P.S. I always prefer the sigmoid output and the last changes to the filmic rgb curve in current darktable makes working with it more difficult.
BTW I don’t see burned out highlights in this photo.
