The KLC proposes that power pins are placed at the top and bottom of schematic components. When the library item is imported into eeschema,the RefDes and Value field are moved from the location set in the library and are autoplaced above and centred over the component.

This means that the RefDes and Value need to be moved in order to connect the component.

Not clear why the RefDes and Value are being moved at all as (presumably) they are in a suitable position in the library to start with.
