>> that we get rid of the current provider and rely on GDAL only. With the 'current provider' I assume you mean the Spatialite-Provider.
Please remember that the Spatialite-Provider was never designed to support GeoPackage. Please also remember that Gdal/Ogr does not support all aspects of Spatialite - writable SpatialViews are not supported The present QgsOgrProvider does not support Spatialite-Tables with more than 1 geometry properly. 'that we get rid of the current provider' would then mean for me (and no doubt other) that Qgis would become fairly useless. That the present Spatialite-Provider is sadly underdeveloped and in no way will be able to deal with the upcoming Spatialite 5.0 changes is well known. A new Spatialite-Provider is being actively worked on and is earmarked for Qgis 3.2, that will deal with the present problems as well as supporting the extra functionality of Spatialite 5.0.
