I would recommend changing the /contrib/gis/util/ogrinspect.py default
to use "Multi" geometry because this will eliminate ERROR when trying to
import a data set that could contain both linestring and multilinestring
for example.
The reason is that gdal cannot always guess the correct geometry type for
example in a Shapefile.
