Description Thomas Marshall 2019-12-23 09:25:17 UTC 
SUMMARY

If one uses the 'Save As' feature, xattrs are obliterated on the new file.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open an image that has some xattrs (tags, rating, comment)
2. Click Save As, and save under a different name
3. Open the new file or use attr -l to observe that the xattrs are gone.

OBSERVED RESULT

The xattrs are deleted.

EXPECTED RESULT

The xattrs should be preserved.
