Description

I have created a layer from a SQL expression. The layer source looks like:


Source
dbname='lic.db' table="(SELECT * FROM \"locations\" join \"pubacc_en\" using (unique_system_identifier) join \"pubacc_am\" using (unique_system_identifier) )" (geom) sql=

If I attempt to edit this layer (right click -> "Update SQL Layer..."), I get the error:

no such table: SELECT * FROM "locations" join "pubacc_en" using (unique_system_identifier) join "pubacc_am" using (unique_system_identifier)

And after acknowledging the error, the SQL expression has been modified to look like:

SELECT * FROM "SELECT * FROM ""locations"" join ""pubacc_en"" using (unique_system_identifier) join ""pubacc_am"" using (unique_system_identifier)
"

This is obviously invalid.
