SQL interface

Description

By now, QGIS lets the user edit geographic features and data one by one. Admittably this is not the way to handle GIS data anyway. Even as a data viewer, QGIS could benefit from an SQL interface. Query builder is a great tool, but it tries to be easy and forgiving (not dangerous) handling only the "where" clause. Exposing a full SQL interface could let the user make updates to fields or let the user fully access the GEOS engine to handle geometric problems.

Besides the "Postgis Manager" plugin there are also the "pgQuery" one and the "Postgis SQL Editor" one.

Is this enough?

Probably not: I do not see a way to do complex, multi table queries

The new opengeo_rt plugin does this
