Cool!
I was able to successfully select and download S2 scenes for the North
Carolina area.

Do you plan to add reprojection on the fly through r.import?

thanks, Markus

BTW: Last year we created a portal for ESA which let's you filter
Sentinel-2 scenes by extra metadata derived from open data:

  Earth Observation metadata enhancer (EO-me)

It meanwhile also supports Sentinel-2B and comes with an OpenSearch interface:
