[Qgis-developer] DWG/DXF Import -- Geopackage

[Stéphane Henriod]

That would indeed make sense for the "DXF export"

But maybe less for the "DWF/DXF import", which is, basically, a format
transformation (so, for the "Vector" menu) and / or a way to add data to
the canvas.

Or, again, maybe I am missing a point :-)
