Agreed. However, the RAW support is what I need the most. I just wrote
a quick script to convert all RAW files to jpgs last night, so I can
get by browsing pictures on the TV now, but true RAW support might be
nice.

AFAIK, I haven't seen any RAW support libraries. There is only the
dcraw program which is not a library. It is pretty lightweight,
however, RAW decoding with appropriate camera white balancing is not a
totally CPU-lightweight task. I assume browsing full-resolution 10MP
shots in RAW would be a bit sluggish.
