Speaking for 0.10, the current policy is as follows:
When detecting a change of modification date, only "hard" information is
rescanned, that is file size, fingerprint, dimension, format, bit depth and
color model.
The rationale is that digikam gives priority to what is stored in its database. 
If you edit photos with an external tool, you need to take the extra step and
run the sync-with-db tool.

The report is a bit unclear to me if we do something wrong when we rescan (and
the code has changed since 0.9). We do currently not implement the IPTC
checksum idea from the MWG paper.
