Comment (by pramsey):

 In general the WKT reader and default creators try to create things with
 3d coordinates, which is counter to my own sense of "least surprise".
 Directly relating to this ticket, the EMPTY case in WKT reader fails to
 note the presence of any dimensionality tags in the input (POINT Z EMPTY)
 and just creates a 3d empty every time. Looks like most types will need to
 be touched to put this completely right.
