Another possible workaround for strong contrast enhancement is the 
curves filter, but it's slower than three cascaded eq filters, and it's 
not linear because it uses a smooth curve through the points:
curves=all='0/0 0.125/1 1/1'

It would be nice if the curves filter had a "linear" option instead of 
the smooth curves.
