Comment(by jef):

 We don't have support for rasterlite.  So it's an unsupported datasource.

 When I try to add spatialite layers using OGR (ie. "Add Vector Layers...")
 I get:
 - on a completely empty sqlite database:  "empty.db is not a valid or
 recognized datasource".
 - on a fresh spatialite database without any layers: a sublayer list with
 geom_ref_sys, geometry_columns and spatial_ref_sys. and selecting a table
 produces a mostly useless layer,
 - on a spatialite database with layers: adding a "valid" layer also
 produces a useless layer.

 Why are you trying to you OGR instead of the spatialite provider?

 Anyway still no crash. Are you sure that you don't have any other
 misbehaving plugins?  What about a backtrace?
