Yes, it's possible of course.

But look like all XMP informations set by ACDsee are not recognized by Exiv2
library. We need an ACDsee XMP namespace, like it's already recognized by
Exiftool:

http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/XMP.html#acdsee

We use Exiv2 library to play with all metadata. We have also an internal
wrapper name libkexiv2 from KDE core but maintained by us.

http://www.exiv2.org/metadata.html

If you is developer, it's not very complicated to patch Exiv2. XMP namespace
definitions are in this file :

http://dev.exiv2.org/repositories/entry/exiv2/trunk/src/properties.cpp

Like you can see ACDSee and also LightRoom metadata definition are missing. All
contribution are welcome...

There are already some bugzilla entries to support XMP sidecar. i will
certainly mark this file as duplicate, excepted if it's about ACDSee only.
