using assign tags in BQM

[frederic chaume]

exiftool 12.89 is installed and  "delegate to exiftool backend ..." and 
"write metadata to DNG file"  are already set
is that enough?

Now I'm not sure I will use it on raw files as it will conduct to 
duplicate them (generate a new version of the Raw with the auto tags) 
that will consum lots of space
May be in a future release you could study a way to assign auto tags to 
the original raw file , either during import steps or another tool
