 QGIS 1.3.0 can't merge features as described below:

 "The union operation would result in a geometry type that is not
 compatible with the current layer and therefore is canceled"

 Imagine a PostGIS-geometry-table, using the type multipolygon. Some of the
 features therein have islands, others don't. If you try to merge two
 features without islands, the resulting feature is type polygon. This also
 happens, when you try it manually using st_union. Since there is a
 constraint on the geometry column, the resulting feature can't be
 inserted. Using st_multi helps on database level.

 PostGIS-Version is 1.3.6.
