Ok. I agree with eXIf chunk written as direct copy of EXIF data. However 
I disagree that anyone could rely on such 'raw' data.
I think encoder should be able to parse EXIF if it want to keep 
unsafe-to-copy metadata, but it may not parse by cost of loosing 
unsafe-to-copy data(as any decoder should discard this data).

I don't think it is possible to keep unsafe-to-copy data within 
safe-to-copy chunk and rely on them.
