[Qgis-developer] Future of spatialite provider?

[Mathieu Pellerin]

Nyall,

I'm -1 if it means removing the add spatialite layer UI; otherwise, if UI
isn't impacted, there's definitively a rational to go ahead and use OGR
(and fix any discovered issue within the OGR library, benefiting the wider
ecosystem).
