You may never get the lighting the way you want. The lighting model is totally perceptual, and will break down if you think about it too much.

One thing I've thought about is rendering the image with several inking schemes then picking and choosing from each the best presentation for each item. Also, post work is a necessity. Inkulator9000 is just too simple to be relied on by itself.

You can make a mask by rendering with 100% set if that helps the post work any.
