As someone who regularly heats things to 1200 to 1400C, heating something to 5700C would be no easy thing to do.

We've got a plasma unit that gets close but I do not think it would be worth the effort due to the amount of effort and absorption within the spectrum problems.
It would be nice to hear..."Oh,yeah, we do this all the time and whatever we heat to this looks blue".  Not likely, heh?
