Hmmm... wasn't that the point of EPSG:0 to start with?
(associating a lenient CRS to data for which we don't know the
 srs of, or that we know has none?).
There is code around already that sticks GENERIC_2D as
the CRS for data that has no CRS (all coverage I/O subsystem
afaik, though I'm fuzzy on the details).

That said, 99999 makes me a little sad but works too :-)
