* Cropping and sharpening are performed in Darktable as non-destructive
edits.

* Resizing/scaling is done as part of the export process rather than as a
darkroom edit, although as far as I know there is not a ready-made export
target ("storage") that allows exporting the same image in several
resolutions/formats at once.

* The automatic "master"-to-duplicate propagation of tags is also not
feasible out-of-the-box, as tags added to one version of an image cannot be
automatically propagated to the other versions. You could, of course,
select all the versions of a specific image when applying the tag, or if
this is not possible there are also some Lua add-ons [1]
<https://github.com/darktable-org/lua-scripts> that would help copy the new
tag.
