When using Grid custom editor, the Kendo Editable adds data-binding for the value for both the hidden and the visible inputs of the ComboBox. This results in a field named [propertyName]_input to appear in the item model after it has been edited.
The way this happens is a bit inconsistent and depends on setup, but in the linked dojo, using tab after editing causes this to happen, but in our applications pressing enter and sometimes even clicking off the editor causes this issue.
See here for the original bug. https://github.com/telerik/kendo-ui-core/issues/3427#issue-244359311
Hello, Stephen,
Thank you for reporting the behaviour.
I have reopened the bug item in GitHub. It will be handled with priority and a fix would most likely be available in the next release.
As a small token of gratitude, I am updating your Telerik Points for pointing it out to us.
Regards,
Martin
