 Some community profiles allows to use point or linestring in
 gmd:EX_BoundingPolygon element. Those type of geometry are not indexed or
 displayed for the time being.

 Example:
 {{{

 In the example, point and curve are not supported, multiSurface is.

  * In view mode, add support to draw those types of features
  * In edit mode, add support to create those types of features
  * Indexing: Those type of element could not be added to an ESRI shapefile
 (ie. mix of geometry types) but could be handled with PostGIS spatial
 index.
