It was not clear to me from this bug report what change to geoapi is needed.

Justin the timing is not bad on the geoapi side; I would like to make a 
GeoAPI 2.2.0 anyways (so we can close off that branch with GeoTools 
2.5.x as its only user). I am doing a bunch of hacking this weekend with 
Mark and would be willing to apply the patch and make a new GeoAPI 
release for your Monday.

If this is an option; the timing for a geoapi release is good; I will 
check on IRC if you are around to talk this over.
