There is, probably, nothing wrong with that way. But, it's known that some unreliable software can either drop Exif data or damage it after file editing/re-saving. Sure, JPEG comments (JC) is no guaranty from that kind of software too, it's just good to have that many ways to save comments as possible, I think. It's not that JC support in Geeqie is like "killer feature" for me. I can use GIMP to create new images with JCs or use CLI exiv2 utility to edit them. Almost every well-known images viewing software has support for JCs, e.g. XnView, FastStone. If you think Geeqie doesn't need it, I won't insist.
