--- Comment #8 from Lionel Elie Mamane <[email protected]> ---
"View" is not a LibreOffice concept, but a concept of the underlying database
engine. LibreOffice shows as view the views created in the database, just like
it shows as tables the tables created in the database.

Hence the data shown by a view (as opposed to the view definition itself) can
only be edited from LibreOffice if the that is possible in the underlying
database. That is, if "v_foo" is the name of a view, statements such as:

 UPDATE v_foo SET column=value WHERE condition;
 DELETE FROM v_foo WHERE condition;
 INSERT INTO v_foo (column1, column2, column3) VALUES (value1, value2, value3);

must be allowed by the database engine.

Plus LibreOffice needs to detect a primary key, so as to be able to construct
the "condition" part. That might be a blocker.
