Which is nonsense as well. It should not be relative to projected
coordinates. I think the sole idea behind this is the bookmark feature and
this should not depend on projection.
This is very old code (before we had proper projection support) and
probably neeeds to be reworked. The idea of bookmarks is to have a
cross-session caching possibility.
