It's true that you have to do the import step for scanned files, and can't
as Mark said, use LR's facilities without importing, but that's the way LR
was designed to work from the beginning. Complaining about it is like
complaining that a car is not as good as a pram because you have to put
petrol in it.
That's called a False Analogy, Bob.
Putting petrol in a pram would have no benefit and is not something
anyone would realistically want to do.
Converting raw images without importing them into Lightroom is useful,
desirable to some photographers on this list and not an unreasonable
request of a tool that has raw conversion and image manipulation
capabilities like Lightroom.
A closer analogy would be that Lightroom is like a car that is equipped
with air conditioning and won't let you drive without it switched on.
It's certainly a very useful feature, but it's one that some people
would occasionally like to deactivate.
