    It thus does not make sense to provide coordinates for count or
    area: which coordinates would you use if you have cells with the
    same category all over your map ?


It makes sense if each raster cell is assigned an unique category (which
I did). What I was trying was get the area per raster cell (of a latlon
raster). But yes, it makes sense that in in general it wouldn't be
logical to have coordinates and area at the same time. I was too much
focussed on my very specific case (trying an alternative way to get
raster cell size of latlon grid).

Ok, now I understand your problem, but honestly, in such a situation I believe that it is better to chose a relevant projection, reproject the grid and then just use resolution^2 as cell size...

But since you already have gone down the route of calculating cell size in r.mapcalc, I guess you really wanted to do it in latlon... ;-)
