Subject: on the fly reprojection with .prj projection

GRASS Version: 5,7

Arcview use in v8 and 9 .prj files to specified the projection of a shapefile.  This allow the view to be 
independant from shape projection.  You may have many projections of shapefile like geographical, 
utm and other and choose to make the view in utm.  If not specified (no .prj) geographical is the 
defaut.

If grass could support this feature it could be a verry good improvement.  No need to reproject files 
receive from many source.  Just be sure each shape have is own .prj file.

With it and utility to make that .prj files for shape without that .prj is also needed.
