  Thx for clarification.

I notice just now the "allow the geometryless tables" checkbox.
However I don't understand what is the goal of allow the user to see 
(and add) all the tables of "information_schema" and of "pg_catalog".
No-one of this tables has any information really useful for GIS works.

Regards,

Andrea.
