Comment(by dustymugs):

 Currently, overviews are generated on a per raster basis.  This works
 great because each raster is treated independently.

 But the limitation of this method is that though the rasters may be
 aligned, the overviews for a particular factor may not be aligned.  A
 possible solution is for rasters to be processed first and create
 overviews afterwards.  This would allow the loader to check that the
 rasters are aligned and then determine a new alignment grid for the
 overview at a specific factor.  Only by doing this can we guarantee that
 the overview at a specific factor is aligned.

 I still don't know if this is worth doing though as this can ONLY be run
 if all source rasters are aligned.
