[Kexi] [ideas] GIS in Kexi; was: Google Fusion Tables - storage for Kexi?

[Noli Sicad]

I think this is very good idea - GIS in Kexi.

Requirements for Kexi (Top of mind right now :-) ).

- Map canvas to display vectors - (I think some parts are already done
- Maps in Kexi)
- read and write SQlite3 files
- data source spatialite file (.db or .sqlite).

Spatialite and GEOS libraries needed are here.

What can Maps in Kexi do right now? Can it display vector and raster?
