How can I make GR show previews for RAW images?

Any ideas?

I dug into this some more - I'll answer in case others find it useful.

This looks like some additional work for the maintainers of Gallery Remote.

Right now the only thumbnail stuff is done by jpegtran - resize, rotate etc.

To add RAW image thumbnails there would need to be a couple of additional extra steps:

RAW image --> convert to TIFF using dcraw --> convert to JPG thumbnail using ImageMagick

In terms of development priority - I'd say this is not that important.
