--- Comment #3 from Gilles Caulier <caulier.gilles at gmail.com> ---
1/ I don't know this XMP tag. Interesting.
2/ I'm not sure that all application will update this tag automatically. In
digiKam case, this must be delegate to Exiv2, as finally library do the
background job.
3/ about time latency to read XMP tag : yes, file system time stamp is a less
time consuming operation. For XMP, file must be open, XMP container found, tag
read, file closed, etc. This will take more time if a XMPS sidecar is present
or not because a check must be operate before to see if original file or
sidecar must be used.
