           Summary: XMP sidecars available for all file types user wants
                    to
           Product: digikam
           Version: 2.3.0
          Platform: MS Windows
        OS/Version: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Sidecar Management
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: anttiah at netti.fi


Version:           2.3.0 (using KDE 4.7.2) 
OS:                MS Windows

Currently digiKam can be configured to add all metadata only in XMP sidecar
files (in addition to digiKam's database). 

If user then adds new file types in MIME-types section of configuration dialog,
metadata for these added file types is stored only in digiKam's DATABASE. XMP
sidecars are not created at all for these file types. It would be also safer to
have metadata in two places - sidecars and database.

Add option to create XMP sidecars for any file type user wants to. Hopefully
this is not a hard to implement feature!
