Description
I have a PostGIS table with some polygons having NULL geometry. The rows are correctly displayed in the attribute table in QGIS. As expected, there is no geometry draw in QGIS.
I have tried different things in QGIS. The logical one for me was to use the tool "Add part" in the advanced editing toolbar. Unfortunately this hasn't work.
I receive a message:
"error, could not add part"
"New part's geometry is not valid."
"Ok"
I log this as a bug, because I believe if I add a part to a null geometry, as a result I should have this part as my geometry. But I understand, if this should be considered a new feature!
Before logging this as a bug, I also asked a question about how I can add a geometry to a NULL one:
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/67569/qgis-how-to-add-a-geometry-to-an-existing-feature-that-has-null-geometry
Thanks!
Note: It's the first time I create a new issue, so excuse me if it's not clear or not at the right place.

I can reproduce this issue on the master of today.
The behaviour is also similar when adding a part to a WFS record that has a NULL geometry, with a different error message:
"Selected geometry could not be found"
