Is adjustment of Highlights, midtones, and shadow contrast and brightness, as well as R, G, and B in the same catagories, legal?

As long as it is applied to the whole image, not just a selected section.

How about adjustment of the tone balance? Is that legal if applied to the whole image?

If you're talking about Curves or Levels (or non-Photoshop equivalent) then both are legal if applied to the whole image at once. The complete rules are available via the link under Challenges menu.

tone balance

That looks about like the Levels adjustment in Photoshop/Elements and should be a legal adjustment (applied image-wide).

Let me add a question to this thread about something I'm not sure of:
Is it legal to reduce the saturation of each color except of one using Photoshop's Hue/Saturation to obtain a B&W-image with one single color?
I want to ably it to the whole picture of course.
I'm asking, because I have not found a submission of this type in the previous challenges so far.
