Hi again, I managed to run a quick test, and I can reproduce this issue when adding a second Editor field to the inbook entry. So (assuming the duplicated Editor field is a result of your customization and not a bug in itself) this is the bug: using duplicated editor entries doesn't work - there's never been made any provisions for it, and the strings of events handling edits, storages etc. is too complex for me to say why at the moment.
For the next version I'll look into whether this can be fixed, or whether we should outlaw duplicate editor entries.
