Hi,
as you may know, we generate a very long list of SRS in our WMS capabiltiies
document, and the list can be customized with the “limited srs list” in the
WMS panel.
Now, for WFS we do exaclty the opposite: we only declare one SRS for
each feature type, basically because we’d have to repeat the full list
for all FeatureType entries in the document, if we tried to declare them all.
I’m about to start working on a chance for this, so that the admin can configure:
a global list of OtherSRS entries that would be configured in the WFS panel,
and eventual per layer OtherSRS list that would be configured in the publishing
tab of the layer configuration, which would override the global list, if present
In both cases the GUI would use the existing component for the limited
WMS srs list, which is basically a text area where people add a comma separated
list of EPSG codes (with validation)
The work will affect the capabilities document of WFS 1.1 and WFS 2.0, while
WFS 1.0 would not be altered as it misses the concept of alternative SRS
(since it officially does not support reprojection).
Simiarly to WMS, the list would not be used to restrict what
target SRS one can actually reproject to when calling GetFeature.
Any feedback?
Cheers
Andrea

Given the excitement I guess this topic is not exactly close to core devs
heart,
but still, it seems nobody is worried by my description above, so I'll
proceed
with the plan

If an SRS is not listed in the GetCapabilities it may as well not exist - since clients should respect GetCapabilities. I take your sentence to mean that you are not going to go out of your way to add an extra check against this list during GetFeature (or GetMap).

All correct. Just mind, in a OpenLayers/Mapfish world a client that starts
from the caps document is sort of a rare beast (it's the desktop ones, that
are normally not the number 1 service consumer)
