Hi!
Indeed, I thought about dng's "normalized raw" definition.
For dt it would thus just be a raw, if(!) the intention is to add it to a dt-db
at all.
However, if one would do this, dt already had some "preset" on how to process
this specific raw, and as dt does not change a raw one ends up with the
possibility to archive ones processing, which can be altered, but not destroyed
accidentially. I think this all has some charming aspects /and/ is,cleanly
handling your "never write to the raw" policy.
Optionally, a dng container can hold the proprietary raw along the normalized
one. This gives about twice the filesize, but is defined in the specs.
