Marcel, i forget to say that we need to polish Dimg API about metadata. Since 
we use DMetadata to load and store Exif/Iptc, all embedded text are obsolete 
for example. All DImg::loader need to be fixed too, especially save methods. 
I will take a look indeep the code and report all points that need to be 
fixed.
