We do that on purpose. Doing otherwise is stupid.

#2 Updated by hfiguiere - over 7 years ago

XMP Specification part 3, section 1:

"For applications that need to find external XMP files, look in the same directory for a file with the same name as the main document but with an .xmp extension. (This is called a sidecar XMP file.)"

See bug #265 for the interoperability problem.
