Actually I don't know.

However, I don't want to discuss what we should, could, would, will do - 
I'm interested to have a projection default value that will provide the 
most benefit *now*.

If someone comes up with a good solution of the WMS/projection problem 
*and implements it* I will be happy to have the Mercator default.


I'll switch the projection default back to EPSG for now as it seems to 
be the best compromise for now ...
