Comment (by mmetz):

 After lots of testing and debugging with the help of Markus Neteler, I
 would like to add boundary splitting in trunk and maybe in devbr6, but
 want to ask first about how to implement it:

 1) enable boundary splitting by default, disable with new flag. That's my
 favorite.

 2) enable boundary splitting with new flag, don't split by default.

 3) always split boundaries, no option to disable.

 4) forget about it, leave v.in.ogr as it is.

 If boundary splitting gets added to v.in.ogr, the man page would be
 updated with a hint to use v.build.polylines if boundary segments should
 be joined again.

 With boundary splitting, v.in.ogr is roughly 2x (1.5x - 3x) faster on
 shapefiles with areas. That's not as much as I hoped for, but something.

 Please vote :-)
