I believe you and I are saying the same thing: if digiKam changes either the
image file or its sidecar (or both), update the last-modified-time column in
the database.  (I agree that changing the other file's file-system
last-modified-date should be avoided if possible.)

Yes.

I guess I was mostly responding to gilles's comment:

If digiKam compares the database timestamp against *both* files' change dates,
this stops being a problem.  I.e. if either file is newer than the database
timestamp, reread.  Thus, if somebody else modifies the original file, digiKam
will notice that -- even if digiKam itself is configured to only ever modify
the sidecar.
