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
