[Qgis-user] CSV import: ignore emptry geometry

Hi there,

I know, this is kind of a feature request... But before posting one,
I'd like to verify that this feature doesn't exist already.

I often have text files, where geometry is incomplete or missing.
When importing these lists, the geom field is invalid and some plugins
run into trouble with this.

Is it possible to ignore fields with an invalid geometry? Right now,
you can discard empty fields - but it seems, you can't discard lines
with invalid geometry?

Sure, work-around is a second step to check those lines and drop them.
But it would be much more nice to ignore them on import.

Best regards,
Tobias
