Hello,

now that there seems to be some life in the netCDF driver again:

Frank, 

you mentioned that the fix I wrote for applying scale and offset was too 
indiscriminate in the sense that they're always applied. Very true.

"Note that GDALRasterBand has methods to get the offset and scale. The normal 
GDAL practice would be to return them via those methods - not to apply them 
on the fly. Then it is up to the caller to do so if they wish."

What I understand is that if I have implemented the GetOffset and GetScale 
methods, which I have, then I'm done. There's apparently a method of 
GDALRasterBand to apply them. How does that work?
