            Bug ID: 496379
           Summary: No longer possible to have RAW files as sidecars
    Classification: Applications
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Homebrew (macOS)
                OS: macOS
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Metadata-Sidecar
          Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: per.wig...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Some version after 8.1.0 broke my workflow. I used to have my additional
sidecars defined as (among other things) "ARW ARW.dop RW2 RW2.dop CR3 CR3.dop".
I also disabled the RAW image loader. This made it very easy for me to manage
my library with digiKam, because when I moved or renamed my "developed" JPEGs,
their RAW files and DxO PhotoLab sidecars were moved/renamed along with them.

In my Photo Library, each photo consists of a bunch of files like this:
IMG123.jpg <- This one is "developed" by DxO PhotoLab or similar software. It's
the only one I want to see when browsing.
IMG123.ARW <- The RAW file from my camera. I want to treat this as a sidecar.
IMG123.ARW.dop <- The sidecar for DxO PhotoLab settings
IMG123.xmp <- The xmp sidecar created by DxO, LightRoom, ON1 and/or other
software

Starting with 8.4.0 (or maybe 8.3 or 8.2, not sure) this no longer works. I can
no longer use ARW, RW2 etc as sidecar names. Perhaps a side effect of no longer
being able to disable the RAW image loader plugin.
