Comment (by pramsey):

 The ability to convert any srid geometry into geography right now was put
 in so that things like 'POINT(0 0')::geography would work (ie, to allow
 unknown SRIDs to go it). I can tighten it up a little so that only 4326
 and unknown are allowed in. All the inputs are checked for range validity
 automatically.
