That's an interesting idea. I was wondering about copy and paste of  
geo-positionining data. When you copy an image in Apple iPhoto you get  
the option of just pasting GPS data into a target image. That is very  
handy when you have taken a GPS'ed photo with an iphone and want to  
tag all your beach photos taken with your DSLR.

In addition to copy/paste of metadata, there could be another
alternative: "save metadata" would create a temporary file with all
metadata and "restore metadata" would restore them back to the image and
delete the temporary file.

Hence one can edit an image in any editor without worries of lost
metadata.

Look this entry from bugzilla:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173120

Implementing this feature is not very complicated, in fact.

If someone is developer, i can guide him in this task
