@Anthony
Just realized by your solution that form has a record struct that I can use.
So the solution became much simpler.

No need to copy the grid.rows to session.

And onvalidation function became

    if request.args and request.args[0] == 'new':
        ...
    elif form.record.modified_on != 
db.manual_lang(request.vars.id).modified_on:
        form.errors.name = T('The record was changed while you were 
editing. '
                             'Go back to the grid to see the updated 
record.')
    else:  # Edit/delete from edit form, after checking the record was not 
modified while editing.
        ...

Thank you all.
Feedback welcome on this solution,of course.
