remote_file will recreate filefield on every page load. Once it's been saved as a file, for most purposes, there's no need to store it. This module unsets the form element for link after successfully copying the file over to filefield.

If you make me a co-maintainer I'll commit this patch.

Scratch that. I see why you don't want this.

I can create an option that will unset this field and re-roll this patch.
