[Paul Ramsey]

GDAL folks might be interested in reviewing this, to ensure it can
support raster goodness well.

I've been approved fundings for second phase of first step
for WKTRaster project, which involves definition of the on-disk
format for it.

If anyone is interested, the RFC is here:

http://svn.refractions.net/postgis/spike/wktraster/doc/RFC1-SerializedFormat

It might be of interest for GEOMETRY as well in that
it defines a "version" field in the format, which would be
useful in case you'll change the on-disk format too, to reduce
problems deriving from further changing of the format
(hwgeom to lwgeom wasn't a walk in the park)

Comments welcome.
