I'm glad you two have been able to quantify better what is happening. I suppose the problem could happen with the Kobo desktop, but I haven't noticed it. It only happens with Calibre for me. Reading manga on my Elipsa was one of the reasons I got it. I'll have to remove them all in the interim.
With the Kobo desktop, it didn't happen every time. And it didn't happen every time with calibre, but, it was more often. I was also able to reproduce it with DB Browser for SQLite if I updated something.

Will you be filing a report with Kobo? I can use their website to leave feedback, but as a customer, my experience is that they just assume I'm an idiot who doesn't know one end of the Kobo from the other.
It's always a problem reporting problems like this in ways they can understand. I'm not sure how I would. But, I discussed it with one of the people on the beta list and he was able to see what was happening. I expect it will be fixed in the next release, but we will have to wait and see.
