 It would be nice if it were possible to transform a ring into a polygon,
 i.e. to fill it.

 For example: if you have a lake in a forest, you could first digitize the
 forest, then cut the ring where the lake is and then tell QGIS to fill
 this ring with a new polygon, instead of having to digitize the entire
 ring boundary again.
