I'm not Andreas but I'd still like to share my point of view :-). I use Bibble for pre-processing raw files along with Digikam, and Bibble also stores "actions" seperately while leaving the main image unaltered. This is indeed an extremely powerful and useful feature, however storing this action data as metadata in the file itself would be a mistake IMHO. Bibble simply stores it in a .bib file next to the image, which makes it very easy to remove or archive it if needed (what's more, Bibble being written with Qt, the file is actually a Qt config file). It also makes debugging trivial, not to mention regression testing. I strongly suggest you follow the same path.
