Calibre 3 adding metadata to KF8
I'm using Calibre 3.4. When I go to edit a KF8 format eBook, I'm finding it's adding metadata to the OPF. I've set the options to not update the metadata. So can this please be fixed?

These are the lines I am getting...

Code:
    <dc:contributor opf:file-as="calibre" opf:role="bkp">calibre (3.4.0) [https://calibre-ebook.com]</dc:contributor>
    <dc:identifier id="calibre_id" opf:scheme="calibre">2f192d81-ed66-4a07-8328-f15de745c8e7</dc:identifier>
This does not happen with ePub. I'd appreciate this being fixed. Thanks.

No it can't be fixed. This is a side-effect of the fact that kf8 files have to be completely rebuilt, unlike EPUB, which just has to be zipped/unzipped.
