I've just tried this on a freshly imported RAW, and I'm not getting the
results you were expecting. Toggling between developers does not get
Shotwell to display the silly 15000 °K version of the developped RAW I
had saved back into the photo import folder and tried to have Shotwell
consider by using "import from folder".

Furthermore, deleting that new "silly version" JPG from the photo import
folder using a file manager did not cause any visible errors in Shotwell
when I toggled between developers some more.

What I've noticed is that the choice of name for the developed picture
may have an influence here. When I chose "IMGnnnn-developed.jpg" in
UFraw as the name, Shotwell did see that picture as new, and did import
it into its database. When I kept UFraw's default "IMGnnn.jpg" (as I had
done last time), Shotwell told be it had only seen duplicates and hadn't
imported anything.

So, this is a working way to do things for me. However, I can still
experiment a bit if you're curious about what exactly is happening.

Thanks for your help,

Lucas
