--- Comment #1 from Katrin Fischer <katrin.fischer at bsz-bw.de> ---
Hi Noemie, you described it perfectly and I can confirm the behavior on the
latest development version as well.

I believe this is due to the AuthorityControlledIndicators system preference.
It's defined there, that the second indicator will be copied from the authority
record.

If you haven't set any indicator in the authority, it will copy a 'space'. As
the input is set to only allow you to enter one character, it looks like you
can't enter anything.

For the other fields you tested the second indicator is not taken from the
authority, so that would explain the difference.

But: Click into the field and then hit backspace/delete the space. Then you can
add your indicator.
