OK, I've just changed that in trunk to use the dimension of the passed 
geometry type.

Regarding SRS / SRID, as far as I can see, there's a logic to try to guess the 
SRID from the SRS based first on a very small list of hard-coded EPSG SRS 
(EPSG:4326,4322,4269,4277,27700), and then trying to find an entry with the 
same WKTEXT in MDSYS.CS_SRS
