Public bug reported:

Hello,

If I go to an Event and then choose a photo e.g.
IMG_20180110_111615448.jpg right click "Edit Comment" then type in some
comment "Foo" and press the "Save" button the comment text appears as I
expect in the "Extended Information" view.

However, if I then close Shotwell and re-open it, when I go back to the
same image, the comment is empty. Shotwell has "lost" comment I made.

This doesn't seem to happen reliably to just certain images. Some images
in the event do save their comments and appear when I re-open, others
don't. There doesn't appear to be much of a pattern.

It's quite disappointing though to add a lot of comments to many images
in an editing session to then find the next day that half of these have
randomly disappeared.

Any idea what's going on here and how can I help someone fix this?

Thanks.
