You have to enable in the settings->metadata->save to IPTC
but digikam won't write into RAW files, but in all others.

Yes, just select all images to treat collectively

No problem (in principle). I do not know of anybody having more than 100K 
images. There is a limit for kdirwatch (that alerts digikam that something 
has changed in a folder) in terms of number of folders in the digiKam 
library. If I remeber correctly it's 1024 folders. In KDE4 this will be 
fixed.
