Generally after import from csv you'll want to save the data into a
spatial format (e.g. gml, shp or kml), just right click on the layer
name and Save As... Once you've done that you can expect that edits
should stick.

It sounds like you hit an unexpected behavior in csv handling and we'll
need to look in the tickets to see if someone has reported this before
or if it can be fixed other than the work-around I mentioned above.

Thanks,
