I don't really understand why the projection code (one of 0, 1, 2, 3, 99) could be a safety check for mis-copying. A projection is defined by several parameters, and for UTM, only the zone number is not sufficient. I would rather discard that info, or keep the full projection info with each map. But then, under normal operation, raster and vector maps are always in the location's projection. If a user really wants to override or change the projection info, it is very difficult to keep the user from doing so, and the user could have good reason to do so.
