#1892 closed defect (wontfix)

Support opening memory DataSource via Open()

Description

Some applications -- like qgis -- use the OGRSFRegistrar::Open() exclusively to create ogr layers. If this is the case, and a memory layer is desired, it is not currently possible to create one other than at the application level.

Create a special filename for Open() on the ogrmemdriver to help accomodate these cases.

No feedback on this. I guess folks have figuring out other ways to do what they want
