Image::Exiftool does, so I do not see a principal difficulty therein

Well - I have ufraw sidecar files as well as bibble ones - and you have to be
careful to rename them all along if you do so with the image file. It's going to
make things even more complicated...

But I would take them if that could make up for a central place where all
meta-information is stored.

To stay with the current digikam solutions: Why not store this information in
the database if you don't want to mess around with proprietary file formats?
