Dear all,
XnView MP can edit a comment of a picture and read it correctly in XMP side pane but not in the same edit comment dialog - in other words, XnView MP cannot read what it was writing itself

Reproduction:
1) open a JPG in viewer mode in full screen (F11)
2) press Ctrl+D (edit comment), check embedded comment, write e.g. abc öäüß áàéè
3) move mouse to the right and choose tab XMP (same as in browser mode) - notice the comment looks fine
4) F12 (Settings) > View > Info. Add {IPTC:Headline} {IPTC:Caption} {Comment} {EXIF:User Comment} {Annotation} to the text area. press OK. press i to display information on top left and notice it shows öäüß áà éè
5) press Ctrl+D again, it shows abc öäüß áà éè
