 Hi,

 stepping through the Location Wizard wxGUI, I noticed the last entry in
 the list of methods for defining a new location, the XY method states:
 'Create an arbitrary non-earth coordinate system (XY)'.
 This can be misleading as the planetary/satellite/asteroids locations can
 be described by proj4, WKT, or an existing planetary map.  I'd suggest to
 change the label in:
 'Create a cartesian coordinate system (XY)' or 'Create a generic cartesian
 coordinate system (XY)'

 Regards,

 Alessandro Frigeri
