Indeed I think is a good habit to organize the views to always have the gid
as the first field in order to avoid the problem of choose the right PK
column.
Now qgis already warns if the column is not suitable as a PK. Probably I
miss something but I really can't understand the improvement of the new
behavior.

Thanks for your patience and for the nice work with QGIS.
