If you use "Edit with Gimp", it uses the formatting parameters you choose just after (like while exporting to a file). So if you choose a 16-bit Tiff, there will be a temporary file created with this format and this file will be opened in Gimp. The temporary file is in /tmp (default). You can try yourself with various format and you can browse the directory and check for the file type.
