--- Comment #4 from Fabio D'Urso <fabiodurso at hotmail.it> ---
As Albert said, this is what's happening in detail:
 1) the original file is left untouched *but* okular saves filled data in
docdata/
 2) the new file of course contains the form data you typed
There's no "bug" in this: this "feature" is what lets you to fill a form, close
okular without saving, reopen the document and still see your forms filled. A
possible workaround is to create a copy of the original document *before*
filling forms, and then fill the copy.

A better solution would be to let the user disable automatic saving of metadata
through a metadata setting panel (there are already some bugs/wishes about it),
but unfortunately we have limited manpower :(
