Comment (by neteler):

 Hi,

 any news here? With the upcoming release we'll get tons of
 requests if we don't solve this problem...

 I still don't understand why Hamish insists to do it the
 complicated way.

Markus,

This really needs to be done in g.proj, although I could hack it into the location wizard if needed. From what I was following of the discussion, there were some *philosophical* reasons for not doing it, but the cost for making a var file is essentially nil and the cost of not having one potentially high.
