Thanks for the clarification, Dwanthy. I had misread "epub metadata" to include the external opf file, not the internal data. I thought that meant Kovid had removed the behavior changing the date. My confusion stemmed from not seeing the date change every time an epub was added. I now understand that it was because there was only sometimes an external opf file in the directory the book was in - perhaps for the mobi format? I'm still very new to calibre and the epub format, but growing to like both quite a bit!
