Description
When importing vector layer, the options on the 'Primary key' and the 'Geometry column' default to 'id' and 'geom' respectively.
The default column names, when creating the layers (e.g. a StatiaLite layer) are 'pkuid' and 'geometry' thus when we import a layer from a previously exported file (QGIS Layers, right-click on a layer, Export, Save feature As) we need to amend the column names.
Should we have a setting in QGIS with the default primary key id and geometry column names?
