Hi Arnaud,
As suggested by others, a QEP for mapping fields would be great. Some
of the Processing tools (e.g. merging layers) can also benefit from that.
Cheers
Saber

Hi Arnaud,
I am really looking forward to seeing such feature implemented in
QGIS, thanks for bringing up the discussion.
I would also recommend going for a QEP, as it is a largely foreseen
feature, and I suppose everyone has its own definition and use-case...
From my point of view, we should go for a very generic field-mapping
mechanism which could be used in many places such as copy-paste. A way
of reading/saving configuration would be quite useful, like presets.
Best wishes,
Denis

Hello QGIS devs,
I want to add a field mapper dialog when pasting features to layers.
For now when pasting features with attributes names that do not
exists on the destination layer,
those attributes values are lost.
When clipboard fields and destination layer fields are not
strictly the sames,
In QGIS 3.0, I want to popup a new dialog with fields mapper
configurator.
Dialog UI could be similar to Refactor Fields Algorithm, showing a
list of destination fields :
source expression (expression widgets) => destination field
For example, I often use this workflow :
Open a shapefile or autocad file.
Use the refactor fields to get temporary layer with same
fields as destination.
Paste to postgis database layer.
I think having this dialog showing up when needed could really
ease data manipulation from one layer to another.
And I want to give the possibility to use expressions.
Any remarks, do you think I need to open to open a QEP for that ?
Regards
