[gdal-dev] Call for discussion on RFC 92 text: WKB Only geometries

[Sean Gillies]

Hi Even,

I'm not much of a C++ programmer, but wouldn't it be possible for all
OGRFeatures to carry WKB data by default and add a method to provide it to
callers? And only construct an OGRGeometry when it's asked for? Such as
when GetGeometryRef is called?
