Since my table can have more than one "character varying(20)" inside, would be useful to know which one has throw the error...
Is there any reasoning (security, perhaps) for hiding column name in the error?

Maybe they are not hiding it, but the error is raised by a value checking routine which does not know where the value comes from / goes to ( ie, it's a 'check_varchar(xx, maxlen), which is used to check columns, function aprameters, type casts....) ( that happens to me in my own code in some places where the context / error message is extremely difficult to propagate down / up  ) .
