CRS utility class is where helper methods are defined; your suggestion
of CRS.transform("EPSG:XXXX", "EPSG:YYYY", thing) is good - but it
will be hard since the JTS utility class (and all our methods for
hacking JTS objects) are not around yet.
Still it may be good motivation to move them. This would be a call for
Andrea to make - could we move the JTS utility class further up the
food chain into the referencing jar?
