A nice long term solution would be that when adding the data to the
screen from a tree; the data entry has children; one child for each
"non default" geometry.
What would be really slick is if we could switch to a different
geometry when the reprojection gets changed (unfortunately i can't
think of a practical way to do this, as the database can't really tell
us that the columns represent the same thing).
An SLD rule could do it!
Do many people take this approach of multiple geometry columns to gain
performance?
Think this is the first I have heard of it.
Also, how could we override the default geometry for the lifetime of a
layer? That would be a little more sane than forcing users to restyle
all the time...
Our "layer" definition is incomplete (and we always have known it). The
default geometry (ie the one the layer is showing) is really a property
of the layer and not of the FeatureType.
