Description

Super nice work on the ui! I am a big fan and already thankful for another great tool built on top of the best db engine 🦆 🍰

I see that the GEOMETRY type is somewhat supported in the UI, but I would love to see more meta data like you give for the non Spatial types.

There is some discussion around the meta data that can be associated with a geoparquet file in the duckdb-spatial repo, perhaps this is relevant.

Thanks again for the great work!

Research direction

Start by reading the issue and the linked duckdb-spatial discussion to identify which GEOMETRY metadata should be supported. Trace the existing UI handling for GEOMETRY and compare it with metadata shown for non-spatial types; done should mean the agreed spatial metadata is displayed consistently.
