[Qgis-developer] Shapefile: prj vs qpj (CRS info)

Hi Devs, 

It seems that QGIS Trunk does ignore the content of the
'prj' file for a shapefile. Instead it seems to only recognise a 'qpj'
file to allocate CRS for that shapefile. 

Is it intentional in order to
render import of shapefiles generated from other packages very difficult
and lock users into QGIS? Or is it a bug? 

Regards, 

Benoit
