Given that everybody recognizes that PDF conversion gives some really terrible results, is there a way to stop PDFs (or any other format, I guess) from converting automatically on input? My Kindle, at least, shows the PDFs just fine (in most cases) and I just want to get them in the library without having to wait for/cancel the conversion job and then delete the mobi file.

Just disabling the PDF input plugin isn't allowed (by calibre, I mean), and I don't see a plugin to control "convertable" input formats. Anybody?
