You are not the first who is confused. Fix would be easy, so I remove
regular dir if it is recognized as GRASS location?

I have to debug on Windows. Does it happen with all data types (int,
float, double)?

It is a virtual field keeping topology symbol, it is auto added when
editing starts and removed when editing is closed. That is the only
way to get symbology to renderer. User should never try to delete
that. The values are not editable in form, but there is currently no
possibility in QGIS to forbid deletion of individual columns (either
there is delete column capability or not).
