The only file change I have noticed, following an edit within Calibre, is that the file name changes from book.prc to book - author.prc. It would seem the metadata (with author name) itself is not being saved within the file.

I think I know why things are getting confused (for me as well). Calibre is a living thing and changes based on features Kovid wants to introduce and requests made to him as well as work done by others. Not all of earlier posts relate to the later or current releases. I have an earlier post in this thread where I did have to save a copy but I think it was 3 or 4 releases ago. I'm still learning my way around Calibre myself.
Have you upgraded to the most current release (0.5.3)?
