That makes some sense.

Managing attributes in the digitizer works fine, but the attribute manager is 
klunky and currently buggy for this. In part, this is due to the behavior of 
the underlying table control it seems. So we have to right click and get a form 
to manage an attribute rather than simply entering directly into the attribute 
table. Also, I noticed that the current GRASS 7 version won't accept entries to 
floating point fields from the attribute manager; it gives an error saying that 
this is a floating point field regardless of what is entered. I haven't done a 
report yet because it just cropped up.
