Comment:

 Forcing rgeos::writeWKT() to output CCW exterior rings, etc, means it
 becomes impossible to output CW rings in other applications, which will be
 Bad for them. Only reasonable way forward I see it to pull the isCCW()
 method up to Geometry and then leave it to the user to GEOSReverse() the
 ones they want to reverse.
