SUMMARY
To an image without any XMP-metadata (in my case a *.jpg image) I assigned a color (purple in my case) and then I performed "Write metadata into file".

A check with Exiftool showed which tags had been created:
(1) because of assigned color and because of settings
- xmp-digikam:Colorlabel
- xmp-xmp:label
- xmp-photoshop:urgency
(2) because of non existing regions, but settings: regions should be written to file:
- xmp-mwg-rs:region-info (as empty list)
- xmp-mp:regioninfomp (as empty list)

And all empty region-lists lists are well formed.
For me the fault is, that empty lists are created.

Best regards
herb
