The guessing happens by loading a single record from the database. I guess
it could try to use a few more records, but certainly not all of them
(might take minutes or hours on very large tables).
I'd say it's a possible minor improvement request, which we ask users to
report only if they intend to back it with development time or funding
(feature requests are otherwise closed after
one year of inactivity).
