Books imported another way won't suffer from this quirk, e.g.,

* The Calibre Wireless plugin warns you if you set your inbox to a folder already handled by another calibre driver, to avoid such metadata shenanigans (among other things).
* Anything else (e.g., OPDS) doesn't generate calibre metadata. (But calibre may then still manage to match it automatically in most cases (e.g., sane in-book metadata; the perfect example being the OPDS catalog from the same calibre library ^^)).
