--- Comment #25 from ja...@lab6.com ---
I have uploaded an example photo from a Canon EOS 550D which results in "binary
comment" appearing as the caption.

This is not resolved in Digikam 7.1.0 (tested with x86-64 AppImage).

This could cause data loss in the following scenario:

1. Set Digikam to write metadata to sidecar file only.
2. Overwrite "binary comment" by typing in a new caption in Digikam.
3. Select Reread Metadata From File from Item menu.

Result: new caption is overwritten with "binary comment".

I understand that the "Reread Metadata From File" function already has the
potential to lose the user's data if it conflicts with the metadata in the file
(in fact, perhaps the function should be renamed "Reset Metadata to File
Metadata"?), but this is a scenario where a user wouldn't expect their data to
be overwritten as there is no comment in the file.
