Moved from the old wiki, possibly obsolete - please check.

Some ideas which would make the QuickWKT plugin even better:

• (strk) make it possible to add an extra column with some identifier in it
• only add the type of layer that you are inserting as WKT (so not always a point, polygon and a line layer)
• make it possible to choose IF you want it added to an existing wkt/memory layer OR just create a new layer every time (leading to the issue that it's not clear what to do if you already have added >1 memory layer) (also an idea of strk ;-) )
• also implement the format of copy/paste that qgis itself uses (that is: a header, attributenames and then the feature + attribute values)
• show examples via a button OR always start with a set of examples (POINT, POLYGON, LINESTRING and multi versions)
• add support for HEXWKB format rather
  than just WKT ? I'm pretty sure core qgis understands that (strk)
• maybe also the ewkt support from postgis?

Bid for fix?

[strk]

some of these issues have been addressed already, better to close this one and file a ticket for every still-to-be-implemented idea. 2 tickets already exist for the hexwkb support (#1 and #3)
