 It would be useful if there was another button next to the Coordinate
 System line that allowed you to choose the spatial context of the
 underlying feature source of any of the layers in the map.  Ideally, this
 would be from a grid that has the CS, and a count of the layers using that
 CS, with a "details" window or maptip listing those layers.

 My reason for this is that my data is in a projection which is recognised
 by CSMap, but which is not identical in text to the value I get when
 typing the CS code into the UI.  Right now, in order to avoid the CSMap
 comparison, I am manually pasting the value I get from the feature
 source's projection override into the map definition.  I could also set an
 override on each layer, but would prefer to avoid adding this overhead.
