Comment(by elcuco):

 Those are good news!
 Nevertheless, loading tables using “Add Vector Layer” can be misleading.
 The naming of the button doesn't suggest that it can add tables as well.
 Can it be done something about it? Create a new button to add tables?
 Renaming the “Add Vector Layer” button to something like “Add Vector or
 Table Layer”??
 Cheers,
 Pedro

 Replying to [comment:2 jef]:
 > You can also add geometryless datasources as "vector" layers now (eg.
 from postgresql or via "add vector layer") and join those.
