</FONT></SPAN><SPAN class=859422910-25102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I saw

<DIV><SPAN class=859422910-25102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>I miss very much
rectangle or optimized rectangle especially in queries.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=859422910-25102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now in filter
provider gets polygon for some actions in MG, but basically it is rectangle

<DIV><SPAN class=859422910-25102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>for some providers
like for Oracle is important to know if it is rectangle or really
polygon.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

</FONT></SPAN><SPAN class=859422910-25102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>After
coping fdo class from one provider to another, trough AplySchema, it is

classes.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=859422910-25102006><FONT face=Arial size=2>
Geometry/Class/schema name can be changed from one provider to
another.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=859422910-25102006><FONT face=Arial size=2> It
would be nice to have reader (like for insert geometries) which would return map
original class-new class, so the procedure is not dependent on keeping same
names.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
