Jacob, thank you for the response. First I was a bit sceptical if Gimp 
installed as Flatpak can access files from |/tmp |which I often use in 
order to take delayed screenshots by a shortcut like this:


xfce4-screenshooter -fmd 7 -o gimp

Once I had Gimp installed as a Snap and it did not work for delayed 
screenshots because Snaps have difficulties accessing |/tmp|. Perhaps 
Flatpak behaves differently.


I gave it a try to install the current version of Gimp in parallel with

sudo flatpak installhttps://flathub.org/repo/appstream/org.gimp.GIMP.flatpakref

and I only had to change the screenshot call to

xfce4-screenshooter -fmd 7 -o "flatpak run org.gimp.GIMP//stable"

in order to continue working (the double quotation marks are crucial!)

Undo history in exif might be interesting, agreed, although i think it
remains to be seen how that'd work for e.g. brush strokes. I was
wondering if the original poster had a use for it today, though :)

There have been a lot of improvements to our metadata handling after 
version 2.10.18. I would suggest trying the latest version 2.10.32, possibly as 
a flatpak, because you also need the latest exiv2 and gexiv2 for up-to-date 
metadata handling.

Besides that, camera makers are part of the problem. They introduce all 
kinds of proprietary data with every new model. It is always a race to keep 
up-to-date with new info from all brands and models.

Anyway. If an up-to-date GIMP with up-to-date metadata libraries as 
mentioned above still has problems, then the best thing to do is open an 
issue, with a zipped (or otherwise compressed) example image attached. It 
needs to be zipped, because GitLab  usually removes most metadata from 
images.

Once we get to non-destructive editing using GEGL ops, I could
imagine an EXIF field listing a set of ops used for processing.
Imagine being able to save as JPEG yet still be able to load
back into GIMP and undo the last few ops. Yes, there would be some loss
of quality because of lossy compression, and it's certainly not a
substitute for saving as XCF, but I can imagine cases where it
might be useful anyway.

Can you share a sample image?

When you export as JPEG make sure "save exif" is checked!

It's an interesting idea - how would this information be used?
