Description

**Summary**

When creating an Alert, and configuring direct Notification on it. The UI for Override Grouping does not allow correctly to remove the previous (default) grouping (`grafana_folder`, `alertname`).

Image

When including disabling (...) configuration, the previous grouping is still visible.
And when attempting to remove both labels via backspace, they reapear.

This looks like a frontend (UI) issue that differs a bit to the experience when configuring the same on the Notification Policies page.

Image

In which you can easily remove the previous grouping and override it as desired.

**Grafana Version:** 12.3.* (OSS/Enterprise)
**Grafana Cloud: [tested in Grafana Play](https://play.grafana.org/alerting/grafana/bfanos2mn4e80a/view)**

Research direction

No file or test is named. Reproduce the issue in the Alert creation flow by configuring direct Notification and trying to remove the default grafana_folder and alertname grouping labels, then compare it with the Notification Policies page. Done means the labels can be removed and the override grouping remains as configured.
