The .xmp is not just a "tag-file". Darktable stores all processing you
apply to the RAW into this file. It would not make sense to apply the
XMP again to the JPEG. And besides of that, the JPEG contains already
all those informations. The tags, color labels etc. are stored into the
EXIF data as well as the history stack.
Because of the latter fact, you can restore a history stack from an
exported JPEG if you lost your original one (or want to see how someone
other archieved a specific image look)
