Really?  I thought SDE would use proprietary data structures in the database
instead of the database's native geometry representation.

GDAL has support for SDE that should also be available through QGIS.  There
used to be SDE GDAL modules in OSGeo4W.  But building those requires ESRI
libraries that are neither publicly nor - AFAIK - available to SDE customers
anymore, hence recent builds of GDAL in OSGeo4W don't have SDE support (there's
some cruft for GDAL 1.5 left).
