Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
This bug happens on 2.93.5 and later (tested also on the latest blender-3.0.0-beta+v30.56ee96349dce-windows.amd64-release)
After I set up the material nodes, if I need to replace one of the textures, the color space goes back to the default sRGB.
The images attached show the same node before and after I replaced the texture in it.
Actually, the same issue happens with any texture in a displaced modifier.

The colorspace is part of the image, not part of the node. So when you change the image, it changes too (not to the default, but to the value for the current image).
That's the thing, the color space changes to the wrong one. If I load a normal map image, the color space goes back to sRGB. Is that the supposed behavior? If so, it's rather confusing.
Added subscriber: @B_Engstler
It happens to me as long as I can remember and it's VERY annoying. I'd rather have the color space stay as it was set by the user. The only time it seems to be working properly is when loading EXR files, but they are linear by nature and easy to determine.

This automatic guessing changed in
7ad802cf3a.It has caused confusion, it is debatable, it has been reported before:
but it has not been considered a bug.
So thx reporting, will merge this with #66985.
Closed as duplicate of #66985

I understand the idea behind the feature, but it clearly doesn't work in it's current state. I have texture maps with names finishing with _metallic, _roughness and _normal and each of my image texture nodes gets resetted to sRGB when loading those in. Having the option to disable this automatic color space guessing in the preferences window would be a blessing.
