When reading that I've got no idea what's happening if I do _not_ check the 16 bit option. Am I editing an 8 bit version of the RAW image in the image editor and therefore lose all advantages of RAW then?

Use SHIFT+F1 over this option to show tool-tips...

Oh, cool. Thank you. Didn't expect that to be there.
