revisiting this problem; it is really making QGIS totally unusable for the 
large tables we are manipulating.

UNECESSARY FULL TABLE SCANS == VERY BAD USER EXPERIENCE!!

If funds could be made available for this fix, is there anyone able/available 
to add this functionality, and avoid a full table scan on adding a layer, and 
on existing project start-up?

(i.e. add a new pop-up dialog when one adds a new vector layer to 
optionally/manually enter the layer extents)

this would make QGIS *-far-* more usable for “big data”

thanks!
Chris
