Ciao Jean, I have opened up a jira for this: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOT-2864
However this does not mean that we (as in the geotools/geoserver project) are going to add this functionality right away, unless someone provide funding/workforce. Besides it would be nice if you caould attach some sample data to this task, even using same fake geotiff. What do you think? Simone. ------------------------------------------------------- Ing.
