I import the Nif first, including bones, dummies and all that stuff. Hide everything but geometry. Save the scene. Restart Max (seems to be necessary, as otherwise the animation turn the model into a transporter accident).
Load the previously saved scene (can be already edited as well), import a KF, save with new name.
If that works, you can see how your changes look when animated - great to hunt down clipping errors and other glithces.
I did not managed so far, to merge multiple animation sequences into one file (it works but causes some glitches, which i do not understand yet (Seems like some keys are missing)). But even if you can only import one sequence to look at it - it does help a lot, when assigning vertex weights to new or changed geometry.

Great work.
I have tried to put something similar together. I will look what i can merge into yours. I have to say however, that the line between "Not Work at All" and "Work, if..." is somewhat fuzzy in my mind... Unless it makes the face look freaky, everything else is more or less fix-able.
For example many animations make face look ok, but detach hands... Could be more or less easily fixed with blender by re-rigging arms/hands - to the torso if has to be really fast.
A minor note/question: why the first folder is cut into 4 quadrants showing the same table (apparently linked as well, as editiong one will change the others...) ?

i added the number code for any instructions on re-rigging or adjusting. I did the split because the list was so huge that it was a pain scrolling and making sure i was stil in the right row or column. you can un-split it of course 
I look forward to your help!
