[gdal-dev] RFC 44: JSON/XML output for ogrinfo/gdalinfo

You might think of adding json/xml output also to gdalsrsinfo, it should
not be much work.

For example, if you have a <srs> node output by gdalsrsinfo, you could have
the same (and only) node in gdalsrsinfo.  Also consider that there are
various output formats for srs (mostly in gdalsrsinfo, but also proj4 for
gdalinfo).

cheers
