Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating xviewer’s image-format or plugin handling and determine what Nikon NEF support requires; done means NEF files open correctly in xviewer.

Description

Let me know if this isn't the right place to make such a request and point me elsewhere if there's a better place to report

I would really like it if xviewer supported Nikon raw image files (.nef extension)
