Well, I think main problem is not allow using of 'some data of EXIF in 
some cases', but instead more clear describe which data may be used for 
most cases and which should be treated with care.

And as I can find out from archives most 'NO' votes (incl. my own) was 
caused by absence of "the data should be considered to be of historical 
value only.", not by absence exceptions when this data could be treated 
as non-historical.
After all, as Cosmin mention before
 >EXIF is about photography, and the photography-related fields are the 
ones that are important: camera, lens, exposure, flash, etc.

Most of these fields are still correct and useful even as historical: no 
image processing could ever change fact that it was shot with mentioned 
lens and camera.
