I guess it allows per-map WHERE clauses for those modules that take
multiple input maps (such as v.patch). The global "where=" option
does not and assumes that all input maps have the same attribute
table structure and data ranges?

slightly-related, but before I forget, I had an idea about the "adding

with a semi-colon.

for example:
  v.module input="roads; WHERE surface IS 'gravel'"

In what ways do you feel this is superior to input= where= ?
