shotwell is primarily an organizer. It is similar to digikam, with much less features.
That contradicts what you've said earlier. You've already said that on import shotwell generates a jpg from the raw file. As for 'organizer", well darktable and photoshop have that capability as well, tagging, rating, grouping selection-by. The fact that the likes of Thee and Mee are already doing things like organizing the uploads into directories by date or by project or by occasion or event is completely beside the point. We're old file system hacks!
people use Adobe's Photosohp) to produce a JPG that is just what you want, cropped, highlighted, toned. Quite possibly more than one. Maybe other enhancements: sharpening, noise reductions, vignetting,. All beyond what the camera can do.
Or you might run a VM windows and use the vendor's photoeditor.
It is in my todo list...
You might prefer Darktable to Shotwell for number of reasons related to what you've been saying. I'm sure Patrick can contribute more on this.

Which is why they sell you battery spares and cards :-P
