 QGis is using GeometryType(geom) to figure out the type of layers not
 typed in geometry_columns. I've added the call for TopoGeometry, but it is
 missing for Geography. Since GeometryType is going to stay, I'd override
 it for geography as well.

 Btw, is there a reason why we don't have an implicit cast in place ?
