thanks for this extra note Jukka.

R Thiede pointed out there is a qgis gdal-tools plugin which tackles the same problem. From scanning the commit code it appears to also to some things with regard to morphing the projection info from WKT to ESRI format. I don't know if that would take into account this possible pixel shift or not.
