Andrea I am personally in favour of throwing an exception if the data is
inconsistent, but I respect that some data is not going to be fixed...

Would a connection parameter work? Or were you thinking a system property
flag ...

Something like "check_geometry_type": do a pass through the geometry to
detect this problem and override to MultiPolygon when creating the
FeatureType.

I considered a flag to force "multi" but that would end up applying to all
tables even when it is not needed.
