+1 for me, too.

In Qgis 1.8 there was a blocking bug and thus it would require a
1.8.1, never released, I think, because for the switch from SVN to
GIT. This bug was the impossibility to split a feature stored in a
postgis table, because QGIS tried to duplicate the primary key. So we
remained to QGIS 1.7.4 and now we are still at 2.0 (but we will
migrate to 2.4 if it is all OK).
