I agree. The current situation is that as gpx files do not explicitly state the CRS, they may get the CRS of theproject at being loaded in qgis. So gpx files should always be opened as lon,lat wgs84 layers,
regardless of the project properties. Perhaps a warning message should pup up at loading gpx files, reminding the userthat the crs of the gpx layer is lon,lat wgs84 and that he/she should consider
having "on the fly" reprojection selected.
