            <div>Hi devs,</div>
            <div>I didn't get any reply so I wonder if it is because
              nobody knows, nobody cares, or something else...</div>
            <div>Other than the concern of "adding/keeping a broken

                <div>Hi Devs,</div>
                <div>In the "Geometry checker" core plugin, there is
                  that option called "Polygons must follow boundaries of
                  layer ...", of which a Processing alg "Polygons
                  exceeding boundaries" was recently created.</div>
                <div>While testing the algorithm in order to properly
                  document it, we came across weird results (also output
                  by the geometry checker) that we are unable to
                  explain/understand their coherence.</div>
                <div><br>

                <div>Issues and discussion are availabel at <a

                </div>
                <div>1/ Does anyone <b>KNOW</b> how this option is
                  really supposed to check? and understand the logic
                  behind the output?</div>
                <div>2/ If there is agreement that this tool does not
                  adress any real use case, is it something we want to
                  keep in QGIS (in this state)?</div>
                <div><br>

                <div>Looking forward to your replies.</div>
