[gdal-dev] remote png and aux file

[Michael Sumner]

I've noticed that a sidecar .aux.xml for a PNG is not picked up on a bare
url:

 gdal.Open("
https://projects.pawsey.org.au/geotar0/sentinel-2-c1-l2a/2023/01/03/Macquarie_Island_Station_2023-01-03.png
").GetGeoTransform()
(0.0, 1.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0)

gdal.Open("/vsicurl/
https://projects.pawsey.org.au/geotar0/sentinel-2-c1-l2a/2023/01/03/Macquarie_Island_Station_2023-01-03.png
").GetGeoTransform()
(-3000.0, 10.0, 0.0, 3000.0, 0.0, -10.0)

Should it be picking that up, or is that too much to ask with the /vsi*
protocol?  (I don't have an opinion, just vaguely expected that it would
find the sidecar file without /vsi*).

Cheers, Mike
