I think that since nef files need to be passed through dcraw (or ufraw if you 
want a GUI.), gimp pays as much attention to your passing it a nef as it would 
to a word document. On my computer, geeqie doesn't list gimp as an option for 
camera raw files but offers ufraw... from where you can send the image to gimp. 
Direct raw support in gimp is a few versions away as I understand it.

Sorry for the top post... Android sucka a bit for that.
