Suggestion A
change vertical alignment to the 'top' for all sizable cells (see other suggestions)

Suggestion B
make cells sizable, so they can show multiline content and
maybe add 'Wrap text' option in context menu
  • EXIF tab
    - XPComment
  • ExifTool tab
    - File > Comment
    - EXIF > XP Comment

Suggestion C

i would set goal like this:
  • minimum
    • like 'Embedded comment'
  • maximum
    • change "like 'Embedded comment'" to
      - [Suggestion C] cell is stretched to the dialog border AND
      - text is auto-cropped right at this border with '...' mark
    • add 'Wrap text' option (see pic)
      when enabled:
      - [Suggestion C] cell is stretched to the dialog border AND
      - text is not auto-cropped, instead cell's height is increased automatically

See issue for current status and some details.
add 'Wrap text' option (see pic)
I've checked with Qt, but results are not good...
