PDF metadata reader and writer plugins are not missing or disabled.

When I do those 5 steps, with "save metadata in OPF file" turned off, the newly added duplicate shows no values in the custom columns that were edited before the save to disk.

With "save metadata in OPF file" turned on, the custom columns of the saved-out re-add are populated correctly. But that's because of the OPF, not the XMP.

Are you saying the saved out PDF has those custom column values XMP embedded, and the new book record's custom columns should be filled automatically with those values during the Add Book creation of that new book record? If that's what's supposed to happen, it is not happening for me, when "save metadata in OPF file" is turned off during the save.
