Double PDF file after doing a "Retrieve Metadata" operation on a standalone PDF file

The "Retrieve Metadata" operation on a standalone PDF file produces 2 PDF files displayed in the items list: one standalone and one child attachment.

The 2 PDF files displayed seem to be the same: applying a coloured tag to one of them also adds it to the other.
Just changing collection and back to My Library makes the standalone PDF file disappear.

Edit: Same problem when doing a drag and drop of a standalone PDF file to a parent item.

    Thank you. This is fixed for doing a "Retrieve Metadata" or drag and drop to a parent item.
    But now I see a similar problem for doing the opposite: "Undo Retrieve Metadata" (after expanding the parent item), or drag and drop a PDF file out from a parent item. The file disappears after the operation instead of becoming double.

    That should be fixed now as well.
