HI Roger - you're welcome .

If I should use jpeg's as a starting point in LR, either by extracting them with the plug-in or by using the saved jpeg's directly, I will be losing the pure sensor information stored in the NEF format, so for example no white balance changes, no exposure compensation or other camera settings, and that is the exact reason why I'm shooting in Raw! I know you can edit the exposure compensation and WB in jpegs in LR, but in RAW the margins are much more extended. .

I think you've missed the point. The reason to have the jpegs in Lightroom is because you've already done all that raw editing in NX2, so why waste it? In other words, you can export those jpegs as is in Lightroom, or make minor tweaks and then export, but there is NOTHING stopping you from re-processing the raw in Lightroom, you just need to be aware when doing so that you will be starting completely from scratch, since none of the NX2 edits carry over to the raw. And that is true of ALL raw converters today - none can read/apply the edits of any other.
Cheers,
Rob
