Bug description:
If you have the 'Save metadata' option selected in the execute dialog. You'll get lot's of warnings like this:

Warning 2: 
Failed to save metadata to /path/to/file/phatch/Shiny.png:
pyexiv2: Setting Exif metadata in PNG images is not supported
Trying again by ignoring tags with following pattern:
Exif[.]Canon

I suggest pre-checking types before attempting to write metadata.
