It is currently impossible to filter shapefiles by id, but the id is what you get when, for example, you check for topological validity, so you have then no way to take a closer look.

Are you saying I can use those fieldnames in the query builder ? What about making it available in the list of fieldnames you can click on then ?

The query build only lists the "known" fields. OGR doesn't report the fid field.

Would it then make sense for the OGR provider to report the fid field ?

the field list is also used when editing. so having the ogr provider report special fields, would open other issues...

false, you the http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_sql.html#ogr_sql_fid fid field (or
$idin search strings)
