To give some background to this list, the thread come from the gfoss.it
list):

v.in.ogr uses OGR for the "where" parameter:

       OGR_L_SetAttributeFilter (Ogr_layer, where_opt->answer );

http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr__api_8h.html#4000d426bf26ad7cc7d4012634c93f09

Does OGR_L_SetAttributeFilter() support a subset of SQL?
