[CinePaint] Opening Images in CinePaint

A couple of questions:

Using FILE > OPEN ... my Canon CR2 images are automatically converted to
tiff for display purposes. Should this happen? Other raw converters all
appear to leave the material in the fully raw format during the
conversion process.

If I drag a raw file from the file manager into CinePaint (as proposed
in the write-up) there appears to be a directory rejection.

A final question: Can somebody point me towards a set of RGB values that
I can use to generate and print a test card. My current card just does
not have the 'subtleties' and dynamic range to do justice to this
process.
