I think if the user wants to add a permanent field with the help of an

don't see any benefit that the "add field" dialog would have over that.

it does not really have any, but I was wondering why I can use an
expression for virtual fields and not for permanent fields

On the other hand defining the virtual fields in the field calculator
(and removing them from "add field") could make things more coherent.

+1, this would make the expression thing in the "add field" dialog
needless
add/remove field would be only for working on the data structure; the
layer must be in editing mode, which makes your original question
obolete :) or now it is applicable to the calculator

Remove field would still be available out of edit mode to remove virtual
fields.
Add field would only be available in edit mode. But the field calculator
instead available out of edit mode.

ok, sounds good
