[GRASS-dev] no way to ID table columns outside of working mapset?

[Michael Barton]

I'm working on a fix for vector attribute column selection in the  
wxGUI and discovered that I can't find a way to get the columns for an  
attribute table for a vector not in the current working mapset.  
v.db.connect and db.columns won't accept fully qualified map names. Is  
this something that needs to be fixed or is there a workaround that I  
didn't see?
