I also think an option "Re-read metadata when files are modified", possibly
with an additional "Picture metadata overrides database information" would be
very useful. After all a picture with a modified file date should in my opinion
just be handled like a new file - but of course changing digiKam's default
behaviour now would be counter-productive. That's why new options would be
nice.

DigiKam is explicitly advertised as "open source" and as such should also be
more open to inter-operate with other software than commercial software like
iPhoto needs (or wants) to be.

My specific problem is that I use two instances of digiKam on different
operating systems, operating on the same pictures. Parts of this comment
