Why "geom"? Isn't the name of the geometry column just a matter of taste?

Agreed, matter of taste. Which is also why I want the geometry column name in the layer name ...

It is a matter of taste, but the current situation is utterly confusing for the users:
- when dropping from browser to DB manager>geom
- when dropping from browser to browser>qgs_geometry

It would surely be nice to encode own's taste into a central qgis configuration
