I recorded an action to delete one of a collection of keywords. This happens to be a standard "boilerplate" keyword common to all images in the current image set, and I applied the action to the entire set. What I found was that, not only the deletion, but the entire set of keywords (the ones existing in the image used for recording the action) was applied to every image. Needless to say, this triggered a time-consuming, manual editing task to restore the image-unique keywords. Luckily, the overwritten keywords were still available within the De_s_cription panel of the XMP Description screen (Under File | File Info). Otherwise, correction would have depended on availability of a backup copy of every affected image.

Would like to know if there is an approach to solving this issue.
