When using the right sidebar, DMetadata::getMetadataTemplate is used (*). This
reads only one XMP value per property.
When a new file is scanned, ImageScanner will use DMetadata::getMetadataField.
This uses often more than one XMP field or IPTC field (takes the first one in
which a value is found). The used fields are documented in DBSCHEMA.ods, tab
"Metadata Mapping", and in the API docs of the ImageCopyright class.
DMetadata::setMetadataTemplate now seems to write to all relevant fields again.

I assume there is a bug or mismatch somewhere. Can you post or check the
database copyright values for this file and the relevant metadata fields?

(*) I plan to unify the loading methods for "Read metadata to database",
currently done with MetadataHub, and the ImageScanner code. There must be only
one implementation.
