I noticed this really inefficient query when QGIS was importing a Postgis
layer:
*select distinct case when geometrytype("the_geom") IN
('POINT','MULTIPOINT') THEN 'POINT' when geometrytype("the_geom") IN
('LINESTRING','MULTILINESTRING') THEN 'LINESTRING' when
geometrytype("the_geom") IN ('POLYGON','MULTIPOLYGON') THEN 'POLYGON' end
from [databaseGoesHere]*

That surprised me because QGIS should already know the *geometrytype *through
the *geomerty_columns* table.

Is this really QGIS's fault, or did Postgis cause/require this? Want to make
sure before I file a bug report.

Thanks,

Aren
