I have my K10D set to produce RAW files only. Occasionally, I press  
the RAW button if I know I'm going to need a JPEG immediately (and  
take the time to set up a better white balance, etc). Otherwise, if I  
need one, I process a RAW into a JPEG in-camera.

If you have both RAW and JPEG files with matching metadata in the  
same directory, Lightroom will ignore the JPEG files when importing  
and only import the RAW files. If you have the RAW files, there is no  
need for the JPEG renderings.

If you want both in your library, segregate them into separate  
directories and Lightroom will import both.
