I often need to add spatial tables (PostGIS) and non spatial tables (PostgreSQL) in the same workspace.

For spatial tables, I'm adding a PostGIS reader.
For non spatial tables, I'm adding a PostgreSQL reader but I need to uncheck spatial tables because I dont want to read them with the PostgreSQL reader (the PostGIS reader already read them).

And if I have many tables, it's not convenient.

So I would like a parameter for the PostgreSQL reader to include/exclude spatial tables from the tables list or a symbol in the tables list to distinguish spatial and non spatial tables, or a button "select/unselect spatial tables".

Completely agree. Why doesn't everything come in through a single reader but with geometry set to nothing if it's non-geographic?

Yes a single reader is a good option too if its not too hard for parameters.
