I think all "major" software (Lightroom, Aperture, FotoStation, Bridge) are
mainly using XMP now, with syncing to IPTC-IIM sometimes[1]. But there are
problems with "minor" software which due to cheapness, or no-price are still
immensely popular, there is also problem with some legacy photos which were
commented with IPTC tags (also including local encodings!). Latter should be
fully readable in digiKam (no ?s), former - like JAlbum here - also should be
someway supported. Background syncing with IPTC-IIM isn't bad solution.

[1] FotoStation claims syncing with IPTC-IIM but does it in such way that many
programs aren't able to read those blocks...
