It seems to me that here happened a misunderstanding.

I just checked the bug and it is still like Nicofo described it. But I think
the "unreadable characters" are not really the problem. Probably there is no
solution for that anyway due to the fact that this field can take only standard
ASCII caracters.

But the important question is Nicofo's first one: why is this happening anyway?
He wrote "This doesn't really annoy me ..." but was obviously meaning "This
does really annoy me because I have just asked to rotate the picture...".

Beside the fact that putting the filename into this field has nothing to do
with rotating the picture it also doesn't fit to the definition of this field.
In the "Display" tab of the metadata section of the digiKam settings you find
for DocumentName: "The name of the document from which this image was scanned".
Has nothing to do with rotation IMHO.

So the solution could be "simply" to delete this action from the code.
