[GRASS-dev] importing & projecting

I imported raster layers in a projected mapset, while the data layers 
were in latlon. I used the r.in.gdal from the menu (i.e., not command 
line), importing all geotif files in a directory.

I would have assumed that GRASS would throw an error as the layers were 
not in the correct projection. Instead GRASS just imported the layers, 
projecting the layers 'on the fly'.

A very convenient option , but I wonder if it shouldn't be an option 
that should be explicitly selected by the user?
