How do I save "DateTime imported" value in Digikam?

[Andrey Goreev]

How about 
exiftool -xmp:dateTimeOriginal="2005:10:23 20:06:34.33-05:00" a.jpg

When writing XMP or other information types which allow incomplete date/time values, the following input formats are also accepted:

YYYY
YYYY:mm
YYYY:mm:dd
YYYY:mm:dd HH:MM

hi,

wow - that was a quick reply. :)
I dug a little further and found out that Adobe (XMP creator) defines the following:

DateTime = date the photo was added to the catalogue
DateTimeOriginal = date the photo was taken
DateTimeModified = date the photo was last modified

In the XMP files created by Digikam I see

xmp:CreateDate
xmp:ModifyDate

which would correspond to #2 and #3 above.

Is this correct? Does Digikam handle it this way? What would the correct tag for #1 (DateTime) be?
