[Qgis-user] question about live vs linked connections

Good question.

So There is a plugin called offline editing. You can connect to a 
postgis database - sync it to be offline - edit it and sync it back to 
the original table. I've not used it in production for a bit but I did a 
quick test against a local database and it worked fine. I'd give that a 
test and see if that would work for you.
