From http://www.sentex.net/~mwandel/jhead/usage.html:
 -ce Edit the jpeg hader comment field (note, this comment field is
 outside the exif structure and can be part of exif and non exif style
 Jpeg images).
So this is the same classic jpeg header comment field that wrjpgcom
can modify.  It may turn out to be the most appropiate one, but I'm
still looking for apps that can modify the EXIF UserComment and
ImageDescription tags (and perhaps other EXIF tags).
Thanks,
