Hi!
Thank you for this project - I am very happy to conveniently post-process the photos in the open-source Ubuntu project.
I have made the change about the exported image timestamps for myself, and thought it might be useful also for others.
Rationale
I wanted exported photos to be easily sortable by timestamp in external apps. In particular, this was an issue for me in Google Photos, where export ordering is much more reliable when file timestamps align with the original capture time.
