[digiKam-users] Metadata for RAW files

It's clear that I didn't explain myself correctly. I don't pretend to
change any RAW file metadata. I consider that if I have activated XMP files
for every image, Digikam will let me write XMP files for RAW files too.
That's is what I'm talking about. For example, Darktable write to XMP files
associated to RAW files what process to do and, so far I know, XMP files
can be used by any software to store processes or data, even for RAW files.
That's is what I pretend, to write metadata for RAW files in their
respective XMP files, not to change RAW data in nay way.

Thank you
