Thanks for the tip, after taking a look at the source of 
Layer.Vector.removeFeatures, I found what I needed (and also figured out why 
i didn't work in the first place). Just changing the geometry of an already 
drawn feature leaves the old geometry in the renderer, that's why I ended up 
with both old and new geometries even though there was only one feature with 
one geometry. The magic line in onComplete (before restoring the original 
geometry) thus is:

feature.layer.renderer.eraseGeometry(feature.geometry);
