If the proposed interface was to be created, my preference would be to either
keep it outside GeoAPI, or put it in the "examples" module - not in core GeoAPI
interfaces since it would bring no new functionality.

I think that a split is going to happen anyway, but I don't know yet in which
way exactly. The reason is that I still strongly wish to restart the GeoAPI
working group at OGC. It is unlikely that the whole GeoAPI is ready for OGC
adoption, so we will need to focus only on a few packages to be submitted to
discussion and vote. Probably org.opengis.util|metadata|parameter|referencing as
a starting point, and the remainder may move in a kind of "pending" Maven
module.
