Both geography and geometry need a densification function so that long
lines can be transformed without losing their basic shape. This would
allow a geodetic geography line to be mapped on a planar map while showing
the essential curvature of the great circle interpolation. Similarly, long
straight geometry lines in a UTM map could show up in other projections
with the current locations.
