#1653: [raster] ST_Transform & ST_Resample are confusing
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------

     Type:  enhancement  |      Status:  new          
 Priority:  medium       |   Milestone:  PostGIS 2.0.0
Component:  raster       |     Version:  trunk        
 Keywords:               |  
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
 Users expect to use ST_Transform to reproject to a new srid and they want
 to be able to define the alignment of the new grid at the same time.
 However this is now possible only with ST_Resample.

 ST_Transform should accept more alignment parameters and ST_Resample
 should not have a srid parameter.

 I understand that those two functions are very much aligned on what GDAL
 provides but gdalwarp is itself very confusing. We don't want to reproduce
 this confusion.
