From ML:
I shouldn't have listed this as a major defect, because there are already
alternative options for selecting a coordinate system (e.g. using EPSG
code or proj4 definition). Its more of an inconvenience.
If I go through the location wizard and choose the "select EPSG code of a
coordinate system" option, I can navigate through the list, chose a UTM
projection using the NAD83 datum (e.g. Zone 10 N). After hitting the next
button I am given the option to choose my datum transformation option. The
first option says it is the default used in the whole nad83 region
(towgs84 = 0,0,0). However this default datum transformation option is not
available when I go through the "Select Coordinate System" option using
location wizard.
I guess I was expecting a "default" datum transformation parameter when
creating a location using the choose coordinate system option, similar to
how it exists with the select EPSG code option.
I have only noticd this with NAD83 projections so far.
