How to import .dng photos into Shotcut for color grading?

[Elusien]

DNG support is on the Shotcut roadmap, but not yet implemented. See here:

Shotcut - Road Map

and here:

Updates on DNG support

With the raise of the Motion Cam and its capability to capture RAW dng files, I expect a lot more users to need this function. So, any idea if and when Shotcut will support it?
