 Replying to [comment:1 timlinux]:
 > This is because QGIS doesnt support mixed geometry datasets. Future
 versions will, but for now I'm going to shift this to milestone 2.0.0 as
 it seems beyond what we can reasonably manage by 1.0.0.

 I'm don't know if KML support mixed geometry layers.  But this issue is
 because QGIS just considers the first layer of an OGR data source.

 In this case there is no problem with mixed geometries.  The six layers
 are of distinct geometry types and the user just needs be able to select
 one of them.

 I proposed something like that in the "OGR merge", but didn't find the
 time yet to follow up on that.
