GIMP preserves EXIF metadata when exporting as JPG - the option is there on the
Export dialog and it's checked by default. I agree on the point though -
whether or not GIMP needs to load the metadata in an image is distinct from
whether the user cares about having that metadata. If you open a TIF file,
what happens to the metadata when you export, and especially if you overwrite?
