Comment (by fotodrachen):

 It's a bug and it's a small update.\\

 The code for import the EXIF "''UserComment''" is already there. But it is
 wrapped in a wrong IF-structure (**bug**!).
 A filled "''UserComment''" is only imported, when "''ImageDescription''"
 is also non-empty. This never happens for pics from DarkTable.
 "''ImageDescription''" is filled for only-ascii text from the description-
 metadata in DarkTable, "''UserComment''" is filled for **NOT**-only-ascii
 text.
 So "''ImageDescription''" **OR** "''UserComment''" is filled in the EXIF-
 data in a picture, but never both.
 "''UserComment''" should be imported even if "''ImageDescription''" is
 empty, it's the alternative.\\

 I added this case at the end of the if-else-structure. May be there is a
 smarter solution modifying a if-condition.
