Good to know. Unfortunately for me, I had to convert all my Canon CR3 raw files
to DNG, since darktable/rawspeed can't handle the CR3 directly as yet ☹ Not to
worry though, I'm finding that the pictures are looking much better when I edit
them with darktable anyway (maybe grace à FilmicRGB, maybe I am also more
experienced now...)

So … the next step:
1) My DNGs made by Lightroom have the original RAWs included and I can them
extract very quickly with Adobes DNG Converter.
2) With exiftool I am able to extract the XMPs from the DNGs. Put them in
the same directory as the RAWs with the same filename without original
extension only ".xmp".
3) Importing the RAW in DT works. DT can read the XMP I extracted and edits
the imported file reasonably good.
Maybe this helps somebody.
-) So I found out that DT can not handle DNGs created by Lightroom on my
Mac even if I extracted the XMP. As long as it is a DNG DT doesn't read the
XMP. It cannot show the preview in the import dialog, it can read tags and
stars directly out of the DNG but cannot read and apply any edit Lightroom did
before.
