Oh, and Preston, I only shoot RAW and you cannot recover totally blown-out highlights regardless of what you do. You can darken them but there is no data there. As Jim points out, just because the histogram is blinking, doesn't mean they are totally blown but I also shoot weddings and when you have white gowns and black tuxes, you have to be very careful about not letting the gown blow out.

If you are talking about missing it by 1.5 stops or more I agree with you. If you are within a stop, that 255,255,255 might have real data in it. The adjustment brush in ACR was the main reason I upgraded to CS4.
