I'm not sure it's digikam's job to produce a kml file, which is a specific file format from Google.
It would be better, IMHO, to produce a GPX file with waypoints using the picture location and comments.
Now, google earth can read gpx files. Maybe google map will be able to do that, or  it's very easy to convert the gpx format to kml using gpsbabel. There is even a web frontend to this tool :

I think there are great opportunities with geolocation, and we are just at the beginning of a new era :)
Another feature could be to select a zone on a map and to be able to see all pictures from this area...
