Description:
What happens is that you are now stuck with no way to create additional columns in that table until you double click another table and get back to your original table.

How to repeat:
1. Create a new table
2. Double click it and go to columns tab
3. Create any primary key
4. Press tab twice to get to the second line
5. Place a new non-identifying relationship 1:N from that table to any other table.
6. Click back into columns area

Suggested fix:
While this is a non-critical bug, it would be cool if you guys could address that in a future release.

Can you always leave the last column blank in this scenario since I need to add additional columns

verified as described. 
Note that the 1:n connection must be setup on canvas using the tool while table-editor remains open.

workaround for the meantime: klick to edit the last existing column and press tab twice

cannot reproduce this behaviour in 5.0.29 anymore

An entry was added to the 5.0.29 changelog:

The last column in a table disappeared in the table editor, and it was not possible to add further columns.
