Chris,
I think it would be useful to limit the projections anyway.
For instance, if we serve out data in The Netherlands, it makes sense to
include WGS84 and ETRS89, and a few UTM zones, but the rest absolutely makes
no sense. So it would be useful if we could limit them, to protect people
from making ridiculous reprojections.
Also, Mapserver WMS client (through PHP/Mapscript) has a problem with the
string size of the combined SRS values ...
Best regards,
Bart

Currently there's no way to limit the projections GeoServer returns. A
few clients have complained about it in the past, but it's generally a
pretty easy fix for them. And from a technical perspective it's a bit
of a hack just to limit projections on the server so a specfic client
can deal with it. I'd recommend talking to their developers about not
creating a separate object for each projection returned. When
configuring the client it probably has a default projection, so could
just look for that on WMS's, instead of making a new object for every one.If they absolutely can not come up with a solution we can investigate
doing so on the geoserver side, but it would likely need a bit of
funding or volunteer time.best regards,
Chris
