@JonathanGregory Am I right in understanding that back in the day the whole 
grid_mapping scheme in CF was added to annotate the relationship between lat 
and lon variables (which were always required) and X and Y variables? If the 
purpose was annotation and that annotation was itself optional, there was no 
actual need for the grid_mapping attributes provide sufficient information to 
do the transformation.
